Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This pioneering text provides a holistic approach to decisionmaking in transportation project development and programming, whichcan help transportation professionals to optimize their investmentchoices. The authors present a proven set of methodologies forevaluating transportation projects that ensures that all costs andimpacts are taken into consideration. The text's logical organization gets readers started with asolid foundation in basic principles and then progressively buildson that foundation. Topics covered include: Developing performance measures for evaluation, estimatingtravel demand, and costing transportation projects Performing an economic efficiency evaluation that accounts forsuch factors as travel time, safety, and vehicle operatingcosts Evaluating a project's impact on economic development and landuse as well as its impact on society and culture Assessing a project's environmental impact, including airquality, noise, ecology, water resources, and aesthetics Evaluating alternative projects on the basis of multipleperformance criteria Programming transportation investments so that resources can beoptimally allocated to meet facility-specific and system-widegoals Each chapter begins with basic definitions and concepts followedby a methodology for impact assessment. Relevant legislation isdiscussed and available software for performing evaluations ispresented. At the end of each chapter, readers are providedresources for detailed investigation of particular topics. Theseinclude Internet sites and publications of international anddomestic agencies and research institutions. The authors alsoprovide a companion Web site that offers updates, data foranalysis, and case histories of project evaluation and decisionmaking. Given that billions of dollars are spent each year ontransportation systems in the United States alone, and that thereis a need for thorough and rational evaluation and decision makingfor cost-effective system preservation and improvement, this textshould be on the desks of all transportation planners, engineers,and educators. With exercises in every chapter, this text is anideal coursebook for the subject of transportation systems analysisand evaluation.

Book excerpt: This report examined the effects of freeway development on land use and property values. A case study was prepared for the Superstition Freeway (US60) corridor in Mesa and Gilbert, Arizona. Among the findings were the following observations: New freeways provide substantial benefits to users in the form of travel time savings and reductions in costs associated with operating motor vehicles. Access benefits are transferred from highway users to non-users through changes in property values. Freeway construction may have an adverse impact on some properties, but in the aggregate, property values tend to increase with freeway development. Not all property values are affected by freeways in the same way. Proximity to the freeway was observed to have a negative effect on the value of detached single-family homes in the US60 corridor, but to have a positive effect on multifamily residential developments (e.g., condominiums) and most commercial properties. The most important factor in determining negative impact on property values appears to be the level of traffic on any major roads in the proximate area, which implies that regional traffic growth is more significant than the presence of a freeway per se. Given the beneficial effects of freeway development on the value of certain types of properties, local governments may benefit from appropriate planning and zoning decisions in the vicinity of a freeway corridor.
Download or read book Non user Impacts of Different Highway Designs as Measured by Land Use and Land Value Changes written by Jesse L. Buffington and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many studies are found in the literature pertaining to highway impacts on nonusers. This report contains a review of the types of highway impacts, highway impact assessment elements, techniques available to measure land use and land value impacts, and findings of previous studies which indicate the magnitude of land use and land value changes resulting from various types of highway improvement. The land use and/or land value impact measurement techniques are of three major types: (1) land use--land value measurement models, (2) land use--traffic models, and (3) land use--urban development models. Those of the first group have been used much more frequently than those of the other two groups. The finding of land use and land value studies are briefly described in narrative, tabular, or graphic form, acording to the following "key" characteristics of highway improvements and affected areas: (1) location of impact area, (2) type of highway improvement, (3) stage of development of impact area, and (4) dominant land use of impact area. The bulk of highway impact research has been directed toward measuring land use and land value impacts of new limited access highways located in suburban and rural areas. The literature contains no procedure that is designed for the highway analyst to use impact data from previous studies in predicting land use and land value impacts of proposed highway improvements. /FHWA

Book excerpt: This guide was written as a quick primer for transportation professionals and analysts who assess the impacts of proposed transportation actions on communities. It outlines the community impact assessment process, highlights critical areas that must be examined, identifies basic tools and information sources, and stimulates the thought-process related to individual projects. In the past, the consequences of transportation investments on communities have often been ignored or introduced near the end of a planning process, reducing them to reactive considerations at best. The goals of this primer are to increase awareness of the effects of transportation actions on the human environment and emphasize that community impacts deserve serious attention in project planning and development-attention comparable to that given the natural environment. Finally, this guide is intended to provide some tips for facilitating public involvement in the decision making process.
