Innovative State and Local Planning For Coordinated Transportation

Congress has directed the Secretaries of the Departments of Transportation (U.S. DOT) and Health and Human Services (U.S. DHHS) to work together to develop guidelines for state and local planning agencies to achieve transportation coordination. The departments formed the U.S. DOT/U.S. DHHS Transportation Planning Workgroup to address those guidelines. In support of this process, the U.S. DOT's Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (Volpe Center), working with the Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) Office of Planning, undertook this study of "Innovative State and Local Planning for Coordinated Transportation." The study examines seven specific planning strategies that can be used as part of a flexible regional planning process for coordinating transportation services of health and human service and transit agencies. The DOT/DHHS Coordinating Council on Access and Mobility has also authored "Planning Guidelines for Coordinated State and Local Specialized Transportation Services," which complements this report and is cross-referenced.
