• Abstract:
  The transportation operations plan for the 2004 Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Boston, Massachusetts, was not a typical transportation plan driven by goals such as mobility and air quality. The DNC was the first national political convention to be held since September 11, 2001. Therefore, it was the first such event for which security priorities took preference over mobility considerations. This report primarily focuses on how transportation officials responded to the security concerns of local, state, and federal safety officials, and how they designed and managed the operations of the transportation system during the convention.
