Title: Connecting Transportation Decision Making with Responsible Land Use: State and Regional Policies, Programs, and Incentives
Abstract: This report examines the coordination between transportation funding and land use practices. It focuses on state and regional initiatives that are directed at curbing unsustainable land use patterns through the use of targeted transportation funding. The objective of the report is to provide planning agencies at varying levels of government with tools that can be used to strengthen the connection between transportation and land use planning. The report showcases 17 jurisdictions in the United States that have developed a total of 40 policies, programs, and incentives to connect transportation funding with various “smart growth” efforts. The variety of approaches indicate that the successful linkage of transportation planning with land use decision making is most likely dependent on creating context-specific strategies.
