Transportation Planning In The Forest Service Metropolitan Transportation Plan Statewide Transportation Plan Land Management Plan (LMP) Metropolitan Transportation Improvement Programs (TIPs) Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) Forest Highway Transportation Improvement Programs (FH TIPs) Project Development Programs Plans FHWA/FTA Approve STIP Environmental Reviews & Approvals, Engineering, Right-of-Way, Utilities Non-Forest Highway Funded Projects or Construction/Procurement Operation & Maintenance

STEP 1 Long-Range Planning Know Your Existing System –System Inventory –NFS Unit Scale Roads Analysis –Transportation Atlas Describe your Desired System –Focus on access needs How is the Desired System different from the Existing System? Know Your Existing System –System Inventory –NFS Unit Scale Roads Analysis –Transportation Atlas Describe your Desired System –Focus on access needs How is the Desired System different from the Existing System?

STEP 1 (cont.) NFS Unit Scale Roads Analysis Science-based analysis –Informs management decisions for transportation systems What is the Forest Service contribution to overall transportation needs? –Involve State and Local Partners –Involve the Public –Obtain Copy Of Current Long-Range Plan and STIP Science-based analysis –Informs management decisions for transportation systems What is the Forest Service contribution to overall transportation needs? –Involve State and Local Partners –Involve the Public –Obtain Copy Of Current Long-Range Plan and STIP
