The report proposes restructuring the current surface transportation program into a<br />
performance based program. Five national goals are proposed with performance<br />
measures: economic growth, metropolitan accessibility, national connectivity, energy<br />
security and environmental protection, and safety.<br />
The authors take a dim view of the failure to require optimum returns on public<br />
investments in federal funding programs, and propose to use access as the key proxy<br />
for economic growth. The resulting four measures recommended include: access to jobs<br />
and labor; access to non‐work activities; network utility; and corridor congestion.<br />
