• Abstract:
  Typically in the United States, statewide transportation planning decisions both impact and are impacted by local land use decisions. When State Departments of Transportation (DOTs) and local governments do not coordinate on these decisions, this can result in conflicting or redundant plans, inefficient resource allocation, and tension between State DOTs and local communities, especially if State transportation planners are not aware of local priorities. Many planners see a need for greater coordination between statewide transportation planning and local communities to create more holistic plans with greater public support.
