Assessment of Pikes Peak Area Council of Government’s Use of TCAPP in Developing a Long-Range Transportation Plan: Technical Evaluation

The Pikes Peak Area Council of Governments (PPACG) is the designated metropolitan planning organization for the Colorado Springs Urbanized Area. The region of over 600,000 people is noted for its traditionally conservative views, which influence transportation planning considerations. This report is an evaluation of how well the Transportation for Communities – Advancing Projects through Partnerships (TCAPP) decision support tool was able to guide and support PPCAG’s long-range transportation planning efforts. TCAPP is designed to provide agencies and practitioners with guidance on reaching collaborative decisions as they work through the traditional transportation planning, programming, and permitting processes.
