Traffic Master Planning for Institutions‹Overlooked but Critical

Presenter(s): David A. Bohn, P.E., VHB/Vanasse Hangen Brustlin, Inc.; Sarah J. Hamilton, Medical, Academic and Scientific Community Organization (MASCO); Jeanne Levesque, Esq., Northeastern University
Convener: Jeffrey Denzak, Symmes Maini & McKee Associates


One of the most important elements of planning is developing an understanding of its transportation infrastructure. Ignoring or downplaying the effects of an institution's plan on traffic can cause problems for years. Fortunately, this is not so in Boston. Exhaustive evaluations of traffic, transit, pedestrian, and parking issues are required for institutions. City agencies also expect and exact transportation mitigation that is unparalleled in most other places. Learn what "drives" Boston's institutional planning.
This knowledge resource from SCUP is a concurrent session presented at the Society's thirty-sixth annual, international conference and Expo, SCUP–36, in Boston, MA (USA), in July of 2001.

Audiocassettes of this and other SCUP–36 sessions are available for purchase here.

Due to our concern for the privacy of members of the face-to-face audiences at SCUP-36, our digital archives of SCUP-36 presentations end at the beginning of the question and answer portion of each session. Whenever we can, we not only provide streaming audio but the slide show or visual presentation used by the presenters, as well.
