Open publisher page 6 citations

Abstract

This report contains a compilation of successful and innovative multimodal planning practices currently employed in a variety of settings, for both freight and passenger transportation. The report should be of interest to practitioners in state departments of transportation, metropolitan planning organizations, transit agencies, and other transportation planning and decision making organizations. It should also serve as an educational resource on available tools that support effective transportation planning and decision making. Through 19 case studies, the report documents recent practices at nine state departments of transportation, five metropolitan planning organizations, and one airport (Logan International Airport, Boston, MA) involving both passenger and freight transportation.
