The objective of this research project was to assess the expected effects of the new NAAQS for ozone and PM 2.5 on transportation planning, the project development process, and implementation of transportation system improvements. In light of standards, the research team examined and assessed probable impacts on conformity; the transportation planning process; the project development process; the NEPA process; and the potential contribution to air-quality attainment by transportation control strategies, transportation systems development, and mobile source technology improvements.
