Bruce D. McDowell

Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

Transportation is regional in nature but yet its problems are dealt with primarily in a modal, fragmented manner at the Federal and State level. The Advisory Commission on Intergovernmental Relations recommends a coordinated regional approach. This would include one Federal transportation block grant, creation of regional planning bodies and transportation authorities with freedom to use funds for capital or operating expenses, incentives for states to create intermodal DOT's and consolidated and reformed regulatory processes.
