Editor's Notes
- SLIDE 1 – WELCOME 1 min. Thank you all for attending today’s session on scenario planning. My name is Rae Keaslerand I am a transportation specialist in the Office of Planning within the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). Today’s session on scenario planning will cover the basics of the technique and later we will hear from Marlie Sanderson. By the way, if you have questions…please feel free to ask them during the presentation.
- SLIDE 2 – Introduction 1 min.
- SLIDE 2– SCENARIO PLANNING GUIDEBOOK 1 min.Today’s session will look closely at the FHWA’s involvement with Scenario Planning and Sustainable Communities. FHWA has just completed a new guidebook, which is available on the program website. The Guidebook provides a generic, non-prescriptive,suggested framework for scenario planning. The guidebook details the six key phases that agencies are likely to encounter when implementing a scenario planning technique, and provides details on the various questions, considerations, and steps that agencies might want to consider when carrying out a process from start to finish. The guidebook also includes examples to help illustrate each of the phases. While the guidebook presents a suggested framework, it is not a prescription for how scenario planning should occur. FHWA recognizes that each process is unique and will depend on a variety of factors, including the specific needs of a community or region.
- SLIDE 4– SCENARIO PLANNING GUIDEBOOK -2 min. Here are the six phases of the guidebook. The left-hand column shows the phases with titles. The middle column shows the general considerations or activities associated with each phase. The right hand side represents the potential outputs–the product that might result from each of the six phases. The tabs on the left-hand side are data collection, identify, prepare, and refine analysis tools, and stakeholder involvement. Each of these represents additional activities that can occur during specific phases. So for example, data collection will likely occur during the two beginning scenario planning phases, so that all data is collected in preparation for creating scenarios in phase 4. Public and stakeholder involvement will likely occur throughout all 6 phases.
