Visualizing California Transportation in 2030 Using Future Scenario Planning |
|
Future scenario planning is a method that pushes the boundaries of future possibilities to prepare for the uncertainty of what is to come. By establishing two driving forces of change, environmental priority and economic growth, we create four different scenarios for transportation in California in the year 2030: (1) Green is Golden (2) Convenience Trumps (3) Holding Our Own (4) Grown from Grassroots We then assess the implications of each of these future scenarios for the transportation system and its various stakeholders. In addition, we describe how to scan for signs that aspects of these future scenarios are unfolding. Finally, we explain how stakeholders, such as businesses and government agencies, can develop robust plans that are effective in multiple scenarios. Click here for our full Project Proposal.
