Abstract:The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Office of Human Environment convened an Environmental Justice (EJ) and Equity Screening Tools Peer Network (Peer Network) and facilitated a four-part series of events between July and October 2021. The purpose of the Peer Network series was to provide a forum for staff at State Departments of Transportation (DOTs) and Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) to share experiences using Geographic Information System (GIS)-based data tools to identify underserved populations within their respective State or region with the goal of facilitating equitable outcomes through transportation planning and project development. The Peer Network series also provided an opportunity for State DOT and MPO staff to learn more about Federal screening tools and to identify how Federal tools and related resources could be improved to be more useful for practitioners.
