Metropolitan Transportation Planning
This chapter focuses on metropolitan transportation planning, which encompasses the communities included in an urbanized area. The regional transportation planning process is valuable because it integrates and links the planning efforts of communities in a region, such as local land‐use plans, economic development strategies, and environmental/natural resource plans. The chapter presents an overview of the metropolitan transportation planning process and associated requirements. It provides an historical overview of how metropolitan transportation planning has evolved. The chapter discusses various aspects of planning process including organization and institutional aspects, essential elements of the planning process, and the technical tools required for successful planning. It describes how metropolitan areas create transportation plans as well as the role that planners play in the process. The chapter focuses on medium to large metropolitan areas, defined as urbanized areas over 250,000 populations.
