Redeveloping Brownfields with Federal Transportation Funds.

by: US Environmental Protection Agency and Association of Metropolitan Planning Organizations   

This report is intended to assist developers, transportation planners, economic development professionals, policy analysts, and others interested in achieving better transportation, environmental, and community outcomes. It explains how to access funds from flexible sources, and suggests ways that federal transportation funding can be used to restore brownfields to productive uses. Case studies review initiatives in Oregon, Massachusetts, Utah, and New York that coupled transportation improvements with brownfield clean-up and redevelopment.
