  16. The State of New York Transportation Department (NYSDOT) is developing a comprehensive set of measures that link transportation investments to the general economic performance of the state. Their measurement evaluates the whole (overall network) system as opposed to individual components . It evaluates the states entire infrastructure system in relation to the overall investment and how that ratio contributed to the states economic growth.

  17. A survey was conducted with other State DOT’s during this study. • 47% do not measure the contribution of their transportation system to economic development • Most of the states struggle with the mobility measures that would gauge the impact of transportation improvements on the economy • All responding states indicated that the transportation infrastructure does have an economic impact, but measured in different ways (i.e. job creation, counter flows, tonnage, etc…) • Clearly, no consensus measures or methods have as of yet emerged from the State DOTs.

  18. The T1 Coalition is a 501 (c) (4) organization made up of businesses and associations working towards the common goal of improving Mississippi’s transportation systems using roads, rails, ports, and air. Working to Improve Mississippi's Transportation Systems
