Abstract:

This report summarizes findings from a series of interviews conducted with Vermonters about the state's expected and desired transportation future. The information from these interviews was used, in addition to a number of other sources, to inform the development of four scenarios about Vermont's transportation future. The interviews were conducted between January and March 2007. Fifty-two Vermonters with broad experience in transportation policy participated in the interviews for this report. Their comments were taped generating 186 pages of transcripts for analysis. The goal of the research was to try and identify common themes, or narratives that guide how Vermonters think about the transportation future. The conversations were future oriented with a planning horizon of 25 years. The researchers attempted to explore each participant's vision for the future and the role of state government in achieving that vision. Interviewees were also asked about the "drivers" influencing Vermont's transportation future. This information was then used to inform the development of four scenarios for the Vermont Agency of Transportation's Long Range Transportation Business Plan.
