This report from the second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP 2), which is administered by the Transportation Research Board of the National Academies, describes a framework—including for long-range planning, corridor planning, project programming, environmental review, and environmental permitting— that supports collaborative business practices for reaching decisions on adding highway capacity when necessary.

A nonlinear integer programming model for expanding the transportation system of an underdeveloped country is presented. The model uses integer O-1 decision variables. The basic model has linear constraints and a nonlinear objective function. Some special situations and extensions to the model are presented. The benefits being maximized in the objective function are discussed, as are the problems of parameterization and suboptimization. A solution procedure for the model is suggested, but an efficient algorithm is not available for solving the model. Some areas for future research are also suggested. (Author).
