Iowa in Motion, Planning Ahead 2040
Author: Iowa. Department of Transportation
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Transportation
Languages : en
Pages : 174
Book Description
According to 23 CFR (450.214a), The State shall develop a long-range statewide transportation plan, with a minimum 20-year forecast period at the time of adoption, that provides for the development and implementation of the multimodal transportation system for the State." The state transportation plan (Plan) is a document that will address this requirement and serve as a transportation investment guide between now and 2040. Iowa's most recent plan was developed by the Iowa Department of Transportation and adopted in 1997 through a planning process called Iowa in Motion. Much of Iowa in Motion has been implemented and this Plan, "Iowa in Motion -- Planning Ahead," will build on the success of its predecessor. The Plan projects the demand for transportation infrastructure and services to 2040 based on consideration of social and economic changes likely to occur during this time. Iowa's economy and the need to meet the challenges of the future will continue to place pressure on the transportation system. With this in mind, the Plan will provide direction for each transportation mode, and will support a renewed emphasis on efficient investment and prudent, responsible management of our existing transportation system. In recent years, the Iowa DOT has branded this philosophy as stewardship. As Iowa changes and the transportation system evolves, one constant will be that the safe and efficient movement of Iowans and our products is essential for stable growth in Iowa's economy. Iowa's extensive multimodal and multijurisdictional transportation system is a critical component of economic development and job creation throughout the state.

Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Railroads
Languages : en
Pages : 32
Book Description
Protecting the safety of motorists, pedestrians and train passengers is an important role of the Iowa Department of Transportation's Office of Rail Transportation. Toward that goal, the office manages a number of programs and activities that encourage safety. They include: a program that administers federal funds for safety improvements at public highway-railroad grade crossings; a surface-repair program that administers funding for improvements in the pavement surface at public highway-railroad grade crossings; track inspection that monitors the condition of the railroads' track pursuant to federal safety standards; education and outreach on rail issues and rail safety; and participation in Iowa Operation Lifesaver. This report examines the status of rail safety in Iowa in 2005, and takes a historical look at rail safety to better understand the progress and continued challenges in safety improvements. Data used in this report was obtained from the Federal Railroad Administration's Office of Data Analysis and annual reports filed by railroads operating within Iowa. Historical data, when available, will be presented for a 15-year period covering 1991 to 2005.
