Building Projects That Build Communities

now available in PDF format

Real partnerships start with ongoing relationships of trust and collaboration. The concept of true community partnerships is good in theory, but can be difficult to put into practice - not only because of things such as local land use decisions which can enhance or negatively impact the transportation system - but also because it requires tremendous teamwork between agencies and organizations.

Inside you'll find information on:

• Using the Community Partnership Approach
• Setting the Stage for Success
• Working Through Design, Review and Approval
• Building Your Project
• Evaluating, Adjusting and Improving
• Case Studies from WSDOT/Local Agency parnerships in Community-based Transportation Design

This book also contains forms and resources for your use. It is also available in CD format.
