Vermont Corridor Management Handbook

   July 2005
 

This Corridor Management Handbook (CMH) was developed to provide a technical resource for state and regional agency planners and their consultants who are undertaking development of a transportation corridor management plans.  The CMH may also be helpful to a broader set of people who are involved in corridor planning efforts - local officials; planning, zoning, and public works staff; transit service providers; corridor residents and businesspeople; and other interested parties.

The idea for this handbook grew out of the recognition that many of Vermont's transportation needs can be most effectively addressed at the corridor level rather than on a piecemeal basis. Limited resources for transportation improvements at all levels of government are dictating more creative and collaborative approaches to solving - and preventing transportation problems.  A corridor approach offers the opportunity for communities to collectively plot a future strategy which makes the best possible use of available resources, takes advantage of synergies to produce the best outcomes, and has a greater chance of becoming a reality - than would otherwise be the case if each community acted on its own.
