John Taylor, Florida DOT, welcomed the
audience and introduced the panel.
Lamar Smith, FHWA, spoke about
Planning Environmental Linkages (PEL).
PEL provides efficiencies and ensures we
are being responsible to the environment.
We must first recognize we are working
with multiple systems (natural systems,
institutional systems, etc.). Sometimes
the systems run contrary to each other
and we need to find approaches by
working together, complying with the laws,
meeting public expectation, and providing
safe, efficient travel for the public.
Linking transportation planning and
National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
laws and regulations is the right thing to
do because there are a lot of good things
in NEPA we aren’t taking advantage of.
There are challenges to this, including
resistance to change and establishing
interagency relationships. FHWA has been
hosting conservation and transportation
planning workshops around the country
to build strong processes and interagency
relationships. The next one is in October.
Mike Bruff, North Carolina DOT,
spoke about the NCDOT Comprehensive
Transportation Planning Process. The
NCDOT integration process for linking
planning and NEPA has four steps: initial
scoping, identifying detailed systems
planning processes, integration of the
systems information, and implementation.
NCDOT’s Comprehensive Transportation
Planning Process involves developing a
vision, conducting a needs assessment,
analyzing alternatives, developing a final
plan, and adopting final plan.
Bob Crim, Florida DOT, spoke about
corridor planning and Florida’s Efficient
Transportation Decision-Making process
(ETDM). Traditionally, project development
and environmental processes did not
involve early interagency involvement.
ETDM helps the planning process by
providing connectivity between FDOT and
state and federal resource agencies, and
the public for earlier project review. The
Environmental Screening Tool used by
FDOT is a web-based, GIS communication
tool that allows information to be sent to
multiple agencies easily and quickly.

Transit use is on the rise due to rising fuel
costs while local governments are faced
with cutting services because of budget
constraints. This session looked at ways
to meet the transit demands of the future.
A Journey Into the Future
Vehicles of tomorrow will be smaller
and rely on electric, hydrogen, hybrid
and other fuel sources. All vehicles will
utilize technology – vehicles will talk to
vehicles, vehicles will talk to the roads.
The transportation system will carry more
buses and fewer cars during peak travel
time and move cargo (trucks) at night.
Creation of a new revenue model: 1)
Replace the gas tax with “everybody pays
all of the time” toll as the base. Treat
users as customers. 2) Increase the tolls
during peak travel times and dedicate the
revenue to transit. 3) Implement
environmental tolls, charging additional
toll depending on the type of
vehicle driven. Revenue would fund
environmental programs.
Transit Financing in the 21st Century
Riding transit has become cool and
ridership is rising. Major cost and funding
stresses on transit. Short-term funding
