The FTA and FHWA have initiated a series of joint Enhanced Planning Reviews (EPRs) to assess the impact of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 (ISTEA) on the planning processes conducted by the transportation agencies serving metropolitan areas. The EPRs are also intended to determine the effects of planning on transportation investment processes. The EPR for Greater Cleveland Metropolitan Area included a federal site visit from August 7 through August 11, 1995. At the conclusion of the visit, the federal review team presented preliminary observations and recommendations for the local agencies taking part in the review. The team then formulated several additional observations as a result of the further review of documents and notes. This report is the summary conclusion and a complete set of the observations and recommendations.
