Description
Safe and efficient transportation systems strengthen communities, provide access to jobs, services, and centers of trade, enhancing US economic competitiveness in the global marketplace. The statewide transportation planning process is a forum through which transportation decisions are made to address these issues. States are required to conduct continuing, comprehensive and collaborative intermodal statewide transportation planning to facilitate the efficient, economic movement of people and goods throughout the state, including metropolitan areas. Statewide and metropolitan transportation planning processes are governed by Federal law (23 USC 134 and 135). Applicable state and local laws also apply. Federal planning regulations are codified in 23 CFR 450. The local consultation rule and the correction are available at the Office of Environment, Planning, and Realty's Legislation, Regulations, & Policy Web page.
