Abstract

The study focuses on the effects of Federal funding policies and structures of transportation investment. Several recent policy developments in highways, airports, and transit were analyzed toward this end. Procedurally, the work progressed by performing six discrete transportation analyses and then drawing together insights gained from these to suggest basic funding principles. These principles are then investigated through interviews on the 1978 Surface Transportation Act with 21 transportation professionals.
