Abstract:Two workshops were presented based on Southeastern Transportation Research, Innovation, Development and Education Center (STRIDE) project 2012-003S, “A Regional Land Use-Transportation Decision Support Tool for Mississippi.” The venues for the presentations were the biannual National Rural Transportation Conference and annual conference of the Alabama and Mississippi chapters of the American Planning Association. The 2016 National Rural Transportation Conference was held in June in Chattanooga, TN. The AL/MS APA conference was held in September in Biloxi, MS. Both workshops had the same theme and learning objectives. The theme was: great towns and regions deserve planning tools that inspire the imagination on fine and broad scales. The technology-transfer goal was to provide an introduction to a suite of quantitative and qualitative tools, developed for a specific but not unique small town and rural area, which help practitioners imagine an area’s future economy, land uses, streetscapes, and transportation system, and rigorously compare the performance of different development scenarios.
