Abstract:Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the future. How can sustainable development be linked meaningfully to transportation planning and policies? On December 14, 1993, the Department of Transportation's Volpe National Transportation Systems Center in Cambridge, Massachusetts, held a one-day workshop to enhance the Department's understanding of the meaning, dimensions, and likely policy implications of "sustainable transportation." At the workshop, approximately 50 representatives from the research community, industry, state and local governments, environmental interests, transportaiton user groups, and the Department participated in a series of round-table discussions designed to identify and address key issues that underlie the new policy drections. The workshop was chaired by Richard R. John, Director of the Volpe Center.
