The following message is for your interest, as well as those at the MPO
level. Please forward to your MPO contacts:

 

Hello TE Managers,

 

This is a reminder that the National Transportation Enhancements
Clearinghouse is currently seeking submissions of successful
Transportation Enhancements (TE) projects to be featured in a newly
updated version of our most popular publication, Enhancing America's
Communities: A Guide to Transportation Enhancements. 

 

This guide showcases projects that received Transportation Enhancements
funding, that document economic & community benefits, and that have a
clear relationship with surface transportation. It is the primary
publication NTEC uses to describe the Transportation Enhancements
program and to show how TE is used across the nation. 

Who Receives the Guide?
To date, NTEC has provided more than 7500 copies of the guide to
individuals, non-profit groups, and municipalities free of charge. We
constantly look to the examples in the guide to demonstrate best
practices for DOTs and communities. 

Why is the guide important?
The guide introduces the 12 categories which are eligible for
Transportation Enhancements funding. For each funding category, it shows
excellent finished projects and the inventiveness that organizations
have utilized to complete projects. Stories of successful projects bring
recognition for the quality of the project and the process of community
meetings, innovative partnerships, and the compromises that made it
happen. For those embarking on the Enhancements application process, the
success stories help them understand the countless solutions that
continue to make the TE program so popular.

If you know of a project that should be included in this popular guide,
please let us know. Find out how to submit at
http://www.enhancements.org/enhancing_3.asp.

Submissions are due in little over a month! Please submit by September
1, 2006.
