For decades, transportation planning—and the transportation aspects of land-use planning—have employed metrics and of mobility as the centerpiece of their methodology. Highway level of service is notable among these and is used by both transportation planning (through its “predict-and-provide” approach) and land-use planning (through traffic-impact analysis) to both shape and evaluate development outcomes. Yet these approaches are inconsistent with the core understanding, shared among the transportation professions, that the purpose of transportation is not movement, but access. This notion implies that accessibility, rather than mobility, is the appropriate rubric under which to plan and evaluate transportation. The centrality of accessibility to transportation has been well understood in the research literature since the 1970s, but accessibility-based planning has been little incorporated into practice. Within this context, project is an investigation into three questions: 1. What has been the impact of mobility-based planning on the planning process and physical outcomes; 2. What are the impediments to a shift to accessibility-based planning; and 3. What are approaches to overcoming those impediments.
