Paper Summary

The article discusses how transportation planning in Central Florida is influenced by land use decisions. The 2025 Long Range Transportation Plan for the Orlando Urban Area introduced a Land Use Alternatives approach to create sustainable transportation investments. By partnering with local agencies, the Metropolitan Planning Organization developed and tested alternative land use strategies to inform city councils and county commissions. The goal was to enhance the land use/transportation system and maximize community sustainability. The strategies identified through this process will help guide future land use decisions in the region.
