PLAN IMPLEMENTATION: TEXARKANA URBAN TRANSPORTATION STUDY

The implementation of proposed transportation improvements in the Texarkana, Texas-Arkansas, urban area is surveyed. This brief case study provides insight into the administrative aspects of conducting and implementing transportation improvements in a bistate, multicounty urban area and identifies and discusses several factors that contributed to the successful implementation. The success of the implementation is measured in terms of the percentage of all improvements that have been completed or are under contract. (Author)
