Download or read book Corridor Preservation written by John J. Maiorana and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 1994 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to transportation agency administrators, planners, attorneys, environmental officials, and engineers in federal, state, and local governments, as well as to citizens interested in corridor preservation. It is especially timely in view of the ISTEA provisions for corridor preservation, although the requirements and conditions are changing. This synthesis describes the state of the practice with respect to the experience and status of corridor preservation for highways in the United States. The report describes the many elements of the corridor preservation process, including project development, advance acquisition, fee-simple acquisitions, and other options, as well as environmental issues. This report of the Transportation Research Board presents detailed information on acquisition techniques such as exactions, subdivision control ordinances, transfer of development rights, purchase options, and access management. Detailed discussions of maps of reservation and legal issues, such as land use law, are also addressed. In addition, innovations in corridor preservation are highlighted and future research is suggested. This synthesis also contains several case examples that illustrate a range of practice.

Book excerpt: This report examines the general concept of planning for and protecting land designated to serve as new highway corridors in developing areas. It generally presents a review of the state of the practice by describing several methods for protecting potential highway corridors, some of which may be implemented immediately and some of which would require legislative or regulatory changes at either the federal, state, or local level. The report also presents a prospectus for future activities at the federal level regarding corridor preservation.

Download or read book Corridor Ecology Second Edition written by Jodi A. Hilty and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2019-04-23 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Migrating wildlife species across the globe face a dire predicament as their traditional migratory routes are cut off by human encroachment. Forced into smaller and smaller patches of habitat, they must compete more aggressively for dwindling food resources and territory. This is more than just an unfortunate side effect of human progress. As key species populations dwindle, ecosystems are losing resilience and face collapse, and along with them, the ecosystem services we depend on. Healthy ecosystems need healthy wildlife populations. One possible answer? Wildlife corridors that connect fragmented landscapes. This new and expanded second edition of Corridor Ecology: Linking Landscapes for Biodiversity Conservation and Climate Adaptation captures the many advances in the field over the past ten years. It builds on concepts presented in the first edition on the importance and practical details of maintaining and restoring land connectivity. New to this edition is a guest-edited chapter on ecological connectivity in oceans, including a detailed discussion on pelagic marine corridors and how coastal corridors can provide critical connectivity between marine protected areas. Another new chapter considers the effects of climate change on habitat and offers recommendations on designing effective corridors as landscapes change with shifting climate conditions. The book also includes a discussion of corridors in the air for migrating flying species, from birds to bats, butterflies, and even plant propagules—a concept so new that a term to describe it has yet to be coined. All chapters are thoroughly revised and updated. Practitioners as well as serious scholars of landscape ecology and the science of protecting biodiversity will find this new edition of corridor ecology science an indispensable resource.

Download or read book Protecting and Preserving Rail Corridors Against Encroachment of Incompatible Uses written by and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rail Corridor preservation and planning for the purpose of reducing or restricting incompatible development is an area of growing importance. This report provides an overview regarding encroachment and the elements that contribute to potentially incompatible development along rail corridors. The report reviews the legal tools that currently exist within Texas for corridor preservation and provides recommendations for new legislation, including draft legislation. The report then reviews the state of practice of corridor planning and preservation with mitigation against encroachment both in Texas and in selected other states around the country. The report pays special attention to incidents in which rail corridors are envisioned to host both freight and passenger services and the implications on land use. Finally, the report provides a review of costs associated to deal with encroachment, whether by planning, preservation, collaboration, or mitigation.
Download or read book Corridor Management written by Kristine Williams and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2000 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis report will be of interest to department of transportation administrators and transportation planning, right-of-way, economic development, and environmental planning staffs, as well as to the consultants that work with them. It would also appeal to regional and local government officials and staff, as well as to the private sector. It summarizes information about corridor management policies and programs at the federal, state, and local levels. An effort was made to select a diversity of methods and programs for the broadest treatment of the subject. The synthesis focuses more on roadway corridors than on transit or greenway corridors, but much of the information provided is relevant to any corridor management effort. This report examines state policies and programs, techniques applied, and coordination issues. A series of case studies provides more detailed study. This report of the Transportation Research Board documents successful partnerships. It presents examples of transportation agencies working together, proactively, with local governments and other stakeholders to achieve more cost effective and comprehensive solutions to transportation problems.
