The ISTEA authorized federal funding for a variety of surface transportation options beyond highways, with major decision-making authority residing with state agencies and metropolitan planning organizations. It aimed to achieve a balanced approach to investment in highways, bridges, transit systems, advanced technologies, driver and vehicle safety programs, and congestion mitigation/air quality programs. Contents include the text of P.L. 102-240; implementation guidelines issued by the Federal Highway Administration, the Federal Transit Administration, and Mn/DOT (1992); fact sheets on ISTEA; a report on ISTEA year 3; and analyses of the act's provisions and effects.

Road to Ruin
Author: Dom Nozzi
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 0313057710
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
What causes sprawl, and are there sensible solutions to its aggravating problems? Nozzi delivers an easy-to-follow introduction to sprawl's causes and offers common-sense solutions available to communities. The time is ripe for resurrecting the tradition of designing that makes people, not cars, happy. Since the end of World War II, America has been obsessed with a desire to improve conditions for cars, not people, primarily through enormous subsidies for road widening and construction of free parking. Not only does this obsession worsen conditions for motorists (at great public expense), it traps communities in a vicious cycle that delivers a declining, sprawling, financially bankrupting future—regardless of the quality of regulations, plans, planners, or elected officials. Nozzi delivers an easy-to-follow introduction to sprawl's causes and offers common-sense solutions available to communities. The time is ripe for resurrecting the tradition of designing that makes people, not cars, happy. The key is returning to modest, human-scaled streets, parking, land use, and development regulations. Design principles encouraging walking, bicycling, and mass transit in conjunction with automobile travel are essential to creating livable cities once again. A professional city planner for over 15 years, Nozzi has firsthand knowledge of what works, what doesn't, and what real-world obstacles are faced when dealing with sprawl. Aimed at people who want an insider's introduction to our road, traffic, and land-use problems, this book is a useful guide to both professional planners and citizens concerned about the future of their own communities.
