TRB’s second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP 2) Capacity Project C40B has released a report that demonstrates the transferability of previously-developed methods to assess biological and ecological impacts from transportation projects. The report also documents the development of a national impact scoping tool.
The C40B project also produced Regulatory Acceptability of Remotely Sensed Data and an additional proof of concept report about the Contra Costa County Transportation Authority.
