Download or read book Updating the Transportation Plans in Virginia's Small Urban Areas written by C. B. Gay and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Transportation Planning Division (TPD) of the Virginia Department of Transportation is responsible for developing transportation plans for areas in the state having a population greater than 3,500. Although transportation forecasting procedures for areas of 50,000 or more are well defined and uniform throughout the state, the procedures used for areas of under 50,000 population vary. Based on a review of available literature and a survey of the forecasting procedures being used by state transportation agencies throughout the country, it was concluded that the procedures currently being used are valid. A generalized process for formulating a forecasting procedure for specific areas is recommended, along with several suggestions to be considered when the procedures are being developed. Additionally, the report provides a summary of forecasting techniques currently in use.

Book Synopsis Incorporating Safety Into the Regional Planning Process in Virginia by : John Sanders Miller
Download or read book Incorporating Safety Into the Regional Planning Process in Virginia written by John Sanders Miller and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Federal Highway Administration argues that one way to reduce substantially the annual $230 billion national societal cost of motor vehicle crashes is to incorporate safety directly into the long-range transportation planning process. Because much of this planning in Virginia is conducted by metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) and planning district commissions (PDCs), it is appropriate to determine ways in which the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) (which generally is responsible for roadway safety) may work with these organizations to integrate safety and planning. A survey of Virginia MPOs/PDCs conducted in this study revealed a healthy interest in such integration: 83% of respondents included safety in their planning goals and objectives, 61% involved citizens in safety planning, and 86% (of those answering the particular question) indicated safety is a factor (or in the case of one respondent, the only factor) used to prioritize projects in the long-range plan. The survey also identified several barriers to such integration. Although respondents cited a lack of dedicated safety funding as the largest obstacle, other barriers cited included the difficulty of obtaining of crash data and a lack of adequate training for staff in areas such as geometric design, crash data acquisition, and human factors. Further, 44% of respondents [who answered the particular question] noted that before/after studies are not conducted to determine the efficacy of safety-related projects. Accordingly, this study developed a Virginia-specific resource guide that VDOT district planning staff, MPOs, and PDCs can use to enhance the integration of safety into the planning process. This report (Volume I) describes the process used to develop the guide; the guide itself is provided in Volume II. The guide promotes the incorporation of safety into the planning process by providing numerous, specific examples rather than by exhorting agencies to perform such coordination. Virginia is a diverse state composed of urban, suburban, and rural regions with varying degrees of reliance on local and state crash data systems. As a consequence, the opportunities to integrate safety and planning are themselves diverse, as reflected in the guide. Many solutions presented in the guide are feasible in some situations but not in others. For example, widening substandard high-speed travel lanes may be productive in a rural area, whereas an urban location might benefit from a reduction in the number of vehicle lanes and the addition of a bicycle path. Further, the guide identifies 16 funding sources for safety-related projects given that no funding source has universal applicability. By necessity, therefore, of the diverse examples provided in the guide, only some may be suitable for a given region.
Book Synopsis Coordination of Transportation Planning and Land Use Control by :
Download or read book Coordination of Transportation Planning and Land Use Control written by and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The public power to control the use of land is primarily exercised by city and county officials in Virginia. Control over the location and characteristics of transportation facilities, including roads and mass transit, is exercised primarily by the Commonwealth through the Virginia Department of Transportation. Unlike most other states, Virginia retains control over and responsibility for almost all roads notwithin an incorporated city. Though it complicates coordination, this separation of the responsibility for land use control and transportation planning is not unworkable. This structure seems to have served the Commonwealth well for some 50 years; however, new pressures have begun to place great stress on it. This report explores the legal, institutional, and procedural environments within which the land use and transportation planning processes operate in Virginia. In particular, the study focuses on the problems that have emerged from the explosive population growth and development that Northern Virginia experienced in the 1980s. The report encompasses six general areas of inquiry: (1) intergovernmental relations; (2) the transportation planning process; (3) land use control; (4) tools for coordination; (5) impediments to effective coordination; and (6) the laws and practices of other selected regions.

This book was released on 2016-08-01 with total page 1204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A multi-disciplinary approach to transportation planning fundamentals The Transportation Planning Handbook is a comprehensive, practice-oriented reference that presents the fundamental concepts of transportation planning alongside proven techniques. This new fourth edition is more strongly focused on serving the needs of all users, the role of safety in the planning process, and transportation planning in the context of societal concerns, including the development of more sustainable transportation solutions. The content structure has been redesigned with a new format that promotes a more functionally driven multimodal approach to planning, design, and implementation, including guidance toward the latest tools and technology. The material has been updated to reflect the latest changes to major transportation resources such as the HCM, MUTCD, HSM, and more, including the most current ADA accessibility regulations. Transportation planning has historically followed the rational planning model of defining objectives, identifying problems, generating and evaluating alternatives, and developing plans. Planners are increasingly expected to adopt a more multi-disciplinary approach, especially in light of the rising importance of sustainability and environmental concerns. This book presents the fundamentals of transportation planning in a multidisciplinary context, giving readers a practical reference for day-to-day answers. Serve the needs of all users Incorporate safety into the planning process Examine the latest transportation planning software packages Get up to date on the latest standards, recommendations, and codes Developed by The Institute of Transportation Engineers, this book is the culmination of over seventy years of transportation planning solutions, fully updated to reflect the needs of a changing society. For a comprehensive guide with practical answers, The Transportation Planning Handbook is an essential reference.
