All transportation projects have an impact on how land uses develop, and land development projects have an impact on how a transportation system evolves. PennDOT seeks to encourage transportation projects that foster sustainable communities, reduce sprawl, encourage alternative modes of transportation and reduce vehicle miles traveled. As municipalities prepare their comprehensive plans, land development regulations, and small area plans; it is important for them to consider Smart Transportation principles particularly for the land use and circulation sections of these policies and plans.
