The report presents a review of the literature, a survey of current practices regarding policies used to foster economic development through intercity highway improvements and the identification of current analytical techniques for assessing the economic development impacts of highways. The review contains extensive documentation of economic development programs in other states which should be useful to the State Department of Highways and Public Transportation (SDHPT) in developing guidelines for evaluating the economic development potentials of highway expenditures in Texas. However, the precise impact of a particular transportation improvement, often times is difficult to assess. The results of a preliminary survey indicate that 9 state Department of Transportation's (DOTs) give some consideration to, or use the promotion of economic development as part of their long range statewide highway planning criteria. The objectives of these efforts range from the mere completion of a statewide four lane network to the development of a process specifically intended to increase the competitive advantage of the states' communities by funding certain types of highway improvement.

To inform debate on a new transportation bill being considered, the authors review the literature on the economic outcomes of highway infrastructure spending, which constitutes the largest share of federal spending on transportation infrastructure. They highlight the connections between highway spending and the economy and then analyze the literature to trace the effects of highway infrastructure on productivity, output, and employment.

The papers in this special issue of the Annals were first presented at the Transportation and Economic Development Conference held in Little Rock, Arkansas in March of 2006. The conference was attended by officials from U.S. Department of Transportation agencies, academic scholars and industry practitioners. This is the second of two conferences organized by the Transportation Research Board (TRB) Committee on Transportation and Economic Development that focused on the interface between these two important issues. The first conference, held in Portland in 1998, focused on estimating and explaining the effect of transportation investment on economic development. This responded to a burgeoning literature on the linkage between the two and the papers presented helped to sort out the complex interactions between transportation investment and economic development. The second conference, which is the topic of this volume, revisited this interaction, but also responded to the more demanding task of using these estimates to help make better policy and allocation decisions with respect to transportation investment. As the nation's transportation system has matured and competition for government funds has intensified, the issue is not simply whether transportation affects economic development. The questions are more complex. What mode of transportation is most cost-effective in meeting a region's transportation needs? How should a state department of transportation prioritize its transportation dollars to maximize economic growth? What are the spillover effects of building highways in one state on the economic development activities in another? What are the relative benefits of specific highway investment, such as adding lanes, building additional highway interchanges, or improving median strips in divided highways? Have tollways improved the efficiency of highways by reducing congestion? Policy makers are demanding answers to these questions, and the papers in this volume are an attempt to provide the framework if not the answer to these and other questions facing policy makers and practitioners.

"Abstract: Federal transportation regulations and law direct State and local transportation agencies to account for economic development plans in transportation planning processes. While Federal law is not prescriptive about how State and local agencies account for economic development, there exists a need for better understanding of how highway projects can support economic development and the economic competitiveness of local and regional economies. This document is a primer on economic development, and includes a glossary of relevant terms, discussion of available economic analysis methods and tools, and descriptions of current practice in estimating economic development impacts by agencies of different sizes. The primer focuses on economic development concepts and economic development impacts generally, in the context of discussing the role of highway investment within a package of economic development actions and policies."--Technical report documentation page.
