Abstract:This report is the first in a series produced for the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) by the Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (Volpe Center). During August 6-8, 1991, representatives from FHWA Headquarters, Division, and Regional offices; FTA Headquarters and Regional offices; and the US Department of Transportation's Volpe National Transportation Systems Center met with Missouri and Kansas Transportation Department representatives and regional representatives of the Kansas City urbanized area in order to conduct the Kansas City Urbanized Area Transportation Planning Review. The comprehensive formal review takes the place of the 1991 compliance review of Mid-America Regional Council (MARC), which otherwise would be conducted by FHWA and FTA regional staff. The purpose of this review is to allow FHWA and FTA to determine how successfully the Urban Transportation Planning Process (UTPP) addresses regional transportation needs on a broad perspective, and whether the planning process meets the requirements of the joint planning regulations. Another purpose of the review is to assess the ability of the existing planning process to address the broader responsibilities that are being added to the process under the Clean Air Act (CAA) and the reauthorization legislation [the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA)], pending at the time of this review.
