TRB’s Transportation Research Record (TRR): Journal of the Transportation Research Board, No. 2453 consists of 21 articles that explores future transportation demand in the United States; the reasoning-building process for transportation project evaluation and decision making; peak vehicle miles traveled and postpeak consequences; reducing vehicle miles traveled through coordinated transportation and land use planning across levels of government; and supply chain–consistent threshold accessibility measures for megaregion economic development. This TRR also examines management of the indirect impacts of bypasses on small and medium-sized communities in Florida; expansion of a municipal bikeshare system into an urban national park through community partnerships; transportation scholars; opportunities for programming suburban multimodal transportation retrofits through the maintenance program; incorporation of costs of life-cycle impacts into transportation program development; and the hidden social networks that drive online public involvement in infrastructure construction. Additionally, this TRR summarizes the origins of metropolitan transportation planning and the urban stakes of interstate highway funding, 1956–1962; the effects of land use patterns on tour type choice; bridging the gap between the new urbanist ideas and transportation planning practice; effects of rail transit on residential property values; and operationalizing land use diversity at varying geographic scales and its connection to mode choice. This TRR documents the connection between built environment and travel behavior; the effects of urban fabric changes on real estate property tax revenue; self-selection effects in residential location choice with a structural equation model; estimates of walkability premiums in the condominium housing market; and the state of practice of megaregion planning in metropolitan planning organizations and state departments of transportation.
