Pages : 258
Book Description
Planning at a metropolitan scale is important for effective management of urban growth, transportation systems, air quality, and watershed and green-spaces. It is fundamental to efforts to promote social justice and equity. Best Practices in Metropolitan Transportation Planning shows how the most innovative metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) in the United States are addressing these issues using their mandates to improve transportation networks while pursuing emerging sustainability goals at the same time. As both a policy analysis and a practical how-to guide, this book presents cutting-edge original research on the role accessibility plays - and should play - in transportation planning, tracks how existing plans have sought to balance competing priorities using scenario planning and other strategies, assesses the results of various efforts to reduce automobile dependence in cities, and explains how to make planning documents more powerful and effective. In highlighting the most innovative practices implemented by MPOs, regional planning councils, city and county planning departments and state departments of transportation, this book aims to influence other planning organizations, as well as influence federal and state policy discussions and legislation.

Book Description
North Carolina has seventeen different metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) responsible for transportation planning. Many of these MPOs face problems in both representation and governance. These include: boundary issues associated with city, county and state boundaries; representational issues concerning a city dominating, or being dominated by, the MPO; structural issues surrounding committee and voting structures; and so on. The goal of this study was to consider recommendations for restructuring the governmental frameworks for North Carolina's MPOs in order to improve their ability to deal with regional issues. The research team conducted a Web-based survey of MPOs across the country. In addition, we performed a series of case studies involving interviews, detailed secondary research, and direct observations of actual MPO policy meetings.
