Recent years have seen considerable changes in the technology of transportation with the development of high-speed rail networks, more fuelefficient automobiles and aircraft, and the widespread adoption of informatics in disciplines such as traffic management and supply chain logistics. The contributions to this volume assess transportation interactions with employment and income, examine some of the policies that have been deployed to maximize the economic and social impacts of transportation provision at the local and regional levels and analyze how advances in transportation technologies have, and will, impact future development. Due in part to the general liberalization of markets, there have been major changes in the institutional environment in which transportation is supplied; these changes inevitably affect wider economic systems and development, although in turn these changes feed back upon transportation networks. The contributors to this work develop these and other themes, from a variety of perspectives, implementing a wide range of academic approaches into their analyses. Stemming from initiatives of the Network on European Communications and Transport Activities Research (NECTAR), Transportation and Economic Development Challenges presents a body of research that exemplifies the organization's objective of fostering research collaboration around the world.

This progress report describes the development of the NTS initiative and proposed future activities to bring the NTS to its full potential. A set of preliminary national transportation performance indicators is proposed. These performance indicators should be seen as the beginning of a process rather than as the definitive set of national transportation system indicators. A second part of the NTS analytical process involves the development and application of a national transportation network analysis capability (NTNAC) that will provide the ability to evaluate the national network in a multi- modal manner. Using the NTNAC, problems with the Nation's transportation system can be identified and policy options to address these problems evaluated. The report concludes with a discussion of the use of the NTS within the Department. It is proposed that the results of the analyses carried out using the national transportation performance measures and the NTNAC in the assessment of the Nation's transportation system, the identification of issues, and the analysis of options be presented in biennial State of the National Transportation System reports.
