TRANSPORTATION PLANNING
The efficient movement of both people and goods is essential to the economic health of any urban area. Comprehensive Community Planning gives consideration to the interaction of land development and transportation facilities and promotes the most desirable pattern and character of urban growth. Transportation planning is a preparation planning to move/transfer human, animal or other item to some place to another place. This planning is related to the operation of the highway system, geometry, and operation of traffic facilities. Transportation planning, or transport planning, is involved with the evaluation, assessment, design and siting of transport facilities (generally streets, highways, bike lanes and public transport lines). Urban Transportation Planning is the process that leads to decisions on transportations policies and programs. In this process, planners develop information about the impacts of implementing alternative courses of action involving transportation services such as new highways, bus route changes, or parking restrictions. This information is used to help decision makers (Elected Officials or Representatives) in their selection of transportation policies and programs.
