OVERVIEW OF ISTEA AND MIS
Trends in transportation in metropolitan America are discussed and the following two challenges of the major investment study (MIS) process are pointed out: (1) To find solutions to transportation problems that work and (2) To do more with less. Four factors needed to make a success of the MIS process are presented and an overview of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA) debate is given.
