15、targeting land use and development in a waythat makes the most sense for communities, the economy, and the environment. A well-integrated transportationnetwork is a key element of smart growth strategies.AASHTOs Center for Environmental Excellence, in partnership with the Federal Highway Administrat
16、ion, sponsored the 2004 Best Practices in Smart Growth and Transportation Competition to showcase outstandingexamples of the work being done across the United States to successfully integrate smart growth principles with the planning and delivery of transportation projects, programs, and services.AA
17、SHTO sent a solicitation to all State Departments of Transportation seeking examples of efforts underway tointegrate smart growth and transportation. We received 34 applications from 21 states spanning the country. Our panel of expert judges selected three applicants as overall winnersone in each of
18、 three categories: best project, best program, and best in institutional change. These initiatives serve as models of the best innovationsand collaborative efforts in integrating smart growth and transportation. Seven additional programs were recognized as notable practices.This report recognizes th
19、e overall winner from each of the three categories. The winners and notable practices aregrouped according to two themes emerging across the United States: Revitalization of communities and corridors on a project or regional level; and Development of broad, statewide, smart growth strategies for int
20、egration of transportation and land use.These winning initiatives and all of the applicants from across the country convey the positive forces at work inhelping Americas communities grow in a responsible mannerprotecting vital resources and ensuring mobility,while encouraging economic development an

41、unities and corridorsBest ProjectMarylandwest hyattsville transit-orienteddevelopment strategyTargeting development around public transportation is an ideal way to apply the principles of smart growth in revitalizing communities. In Prince Georges County,Maryland, state and local officials developed
42、 a model blueprint for community redevelopment centered on theWest Hyattsville Metrorail transit station, just outsideWashington, DC. Dedicated officials worked to ensure that the strategy wouldhonor local values and reflect the regional context. In aunique study process, officials developed three d
43、etailed, alternative scenarios with renderings of each; gathered inputfrom developers; conducted financial feasibility analysesincluding assessment of public and private investment need-ed; developed a detailed parking plan; and provided detailedsteps for implementation. Numerous meetings and design
44、charettes held with representatives from the WashingtonMetropolitan Area Transit Authority, Prince Georges CountyPlanning Department, the City of Hyattsville, MarylandDepartment of Transportation, and the Maryland Office ofSmart Growth resulted in the “Transit Village“ concept.Initially selected as
45、a case study because of its strong community setting, its location along on a linear riparianpark, its proximity to nearby activity centers, and its emerg-ing real estate market, the West Hyattsville Transit-OrientedDevelopment Strategy will transform approximately 80 acresof underutilized land and
46、aging commercial space near theMetrorail station into a state-of-the-art “Transit Village.“Officials plan to use the strategy utilized in West Hyattsvilleas a springboard to promote transit-oriented developmentnear other Metrorail stations throughout the county. Model TOD FeaturesThe Transit-Oriente
47、d Development (TOD) Strategy developed for West Hyattsville provides classic transit-oriented development features that encourage residential andcommercial development in the area and that preserve thenatural environment and community values. The strategyenvisions a compact, mixed-use, low-rise deve
48、lopment that ispedestrian friendly and is designed to efficiently manageparking. Plans show that the Metrorail transit station itselfwill be part of a new “village green“ and will also serve as aboarding point for bus transit.An attractive system of parks will be situated along both sidesof the Nort
49、hwest branch of the Anacostia River and SligoCreek. This park system will include “view corridors,“ new amenities, and recreation areas, all fronted by residentialbuildings.The West Hyattsville Transit-Oriented Development Strategy (TOD)provides for multi-use commercial and residential development, greenspaces, and recreational opportunities that will increase real estate values. The TOD Strategy would also revitalize the area surroundingthe underutilized Green Line Metrorail transit station, which providesaccess to the
