What do we want from our transportation system?

Transportation is Important
Our transportation system supports our
economy and lifestyle
(Access to destinations and activities, mobility)
Transportation facilities have major impact on
community’s character
(Structure, connections, context)
Transportation system is vital link in supply
chain
(agriculture, tourism, resource extraction)

What are the transportation issues and
challenges in your community?

Rural Transportation Challenges
• Capacity – not adequate for demand
• Connectivity – interstate access, transit, rail service
• Safety – high fatality rate, higher speeds, emergency
response times
• Deficient Conditions – pavement and bridge

Land Use and Transportation Connection
![Page 8: Transportation and Communities - North Dakota Department ... · Transportation and Communities Federal Highway Administration U. S.

What Do We Mean by Land Use?
Human development, land management
Type of use (residential, commercial,
industrial, agricultural, etc.)
Density
Mix of uses in an area
Design characteristics

Factors in Development Decisions
Local economy
Land values
Zoning
Environmental factors (topography, geology, etc.)
Access to transportation infrastructure
Other infrastructure (water, sewer, broadband, etc.)
Any Others?
![Page 19: Transportation and Communities - North Dakota Department ... · Transportation and Communities Federal Highway Administration U. S.

Who Benefits and Who Pays?
•Local land use decisions impact the regional transportation system
•Local governments rarely consider the longer-term, more widespread costs of their local land use decisions on transportation
•Most major (high cost) transportation improvements rely on limited state/federal funds
Accelerated growth due to improved
transportation system can fall on
unprepared local governments
![Page 20: Transportation and Communities - North Dakota Department ... · Transportation and Communities Federal Highway Administration U. S. Department of Transportation Transportation Planning](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022040606/5eadd33b0f99677f767785fd/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Roles and Responsibilities
• Land use decisions are primarily made at the local level
• Transportation decisions for major projects involve local, regional, state and federal agencies
Roles and responsibilities vary greatly
between and within States:

A Few Key Points
Transportation decisions are important in
shaping communities and quality of life.
Transportation and Land Use are
intertwined. (one interactive system)
Transportation and land use decisions are
often disconnected.
Planning process to achieve better informed
decision making.
