Ms. Reeder is assisting with the Sustainability and Livability chapter, organized around the six livability principles identified by the Department of Housing and urban Development (HUD)-DOT-Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Partnership for Sustainable Communities. It will showcase best practices that illustrate how these strategies can assist with meeting multiple goals and objectives. FHWA Performance-Based Management of Federal-Aid Highway Program. For the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Cambridge Systematics identified and evaluated options for implementing a performance-based Federal-aid highway program. The Livability Addendum explored the ways in which performance measures currently are being used to measure livability and provided guidance and requirements for additional research to further the agenda of a national-level program. Ms. Reeder provided technical expertise to the Final Report. SHRP Community Visioning Approach to Support the Collaborative Decision-Making Framework for Transportation Investments. For the National Academy of Sciences, Ms. Reeder was the Deputy Project Manager for a project studying how effective visioning processes may best support transportation decision-making. Case studies of existing visioning processes were developed to better understand the range of visioning efforts and to further explore integration with transportation planning. This project produced a practitioner’s guidebook that identifies practical models and lessons for visioning and establishes linkages between visioning outcomes and transportation planning processes. Maryland State Development Plan. For the Maryland DOT, Cambridge Systematics provided support in the development of Maryland’s first State Development Plan to help guide the growth and development patterns for the State. Ms. Reeder reviewed work from state agencies addressing issues such as housing, transportation, and conservation of natural resources, and provided input on how the State’s transportation and land use patterns have created current conditions and growth trends.
