Item Anticipating 2025 in Northeast Corridor Transportation: Aerial, Highway, Marine, and Rail Technologies and Linkages(2009-01-16T20:23:35Z) Warren, Robert; Anderson, William P.; Rodrigue, Jean-Paul; Wakeman, T. H., III; de Cerreño, Allison L. C.The dynamics and productivity of the Northeast Corridor (NEC) are recognized as key drivers of the United States’ economy as well as for the eastern part of the nation. Especially important, in this context, is the capacity of the NEC’s multimodal transportation system to efficiently move people and freight into, around, and out of the Corridor. This is especially important for its central portion linking Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C. The papers that follow are written as part of a project undertaken by the University of Delaware’s Institute of Public Administration that focuses on the factors that will influence the likely attributes of the transportation infrastructure for moving people and freight into, around, and out of the NEC in 2025. Their goal is to provide one of the first steps in stimulating forward-oriented research, speculation, and planning and policy discourse that takes into account the likelihood that what will or should be the character and dimensions of the Corridor’s multimodal transportation structure two decades from now cannot be anticipated using straight-line, single modal projections.Item Atlas of Transit Resources in Delaware(Institute for Public Administration, 2001-09) Schlosser, Christian; Warren, Robert; Settles, Alexander; Moreland, LisaItem Building Inter-Metropolitan Rail Corridors(2006-09-21T18:04:01Z) Mitchell, Ivan; Moreland, Lisa; Warren, RobertBuilding rail capacity and efficiency in the United States is critical for both effectively meeting projected increasing transportation demands over the next several decades and reducing our dependency on fossil fuels. To achieve this, there is a need to expand rail infrastructure and shift a portion of the movement of people and freight from highway to rail. The policy forum acted as a venue to discuss progress that is being made, problems that need to be overcome, and which steps should be given priority to move corridor development forward and create wider public understanding, support, and use.Item Changing Technologies: Mapping the Future of Lifestyles, Work, and Business in Delaware(Institute for Public Administration, 1999-02) Warren, Robert; Lisa, MorelandItem E-Commerce: Changing the Face of Goods Services and Transportation(Institute for Public Administration, 2000-03) Warren, Robert; Moreland, Lisa; Boland, KamaItem Infrastructure Security in Delaware: Organization and Assessment(2006-03-03T16:10:26Z) Brennan, Lisa; Warren, Robert; Moreland, LisaBased on research conducted between January and July of 2005 by the Institute for Public Administration (IPA) at the University of Delaware with funding from the Delaware Department of Transportation, this report gives a general picture of the national homeland security framework and the way in which infrastructure security organization and policies have evolved within that framework. The report studies the national overview of infrastructure security, including the history of federal involvement and influence, and evaluates the risks, threats, and vulnerabilities for three critical infrastructure sectors. In addition, it offers specific analysis on some of the specific risks, threats, and vulnerabilities for Delaware. It outlines the organization of infrastructure security with an assessment of the current structure’s effectiveness. Lastly, the report provides recommendations for change to improve the organization of infrastructure security.Item Transportation Policy and Governance in the Northeast Corridor: An Overview of Major Public Agencies(2009-11-20T19:58:42Z) Beauchamp, David; Warren, Robert; Edwards, Geoff; Jiang, XuanThe lack of systematic planning and policy-making to optimize the NEC’s overall transportation infrastructure is obviously not due to an absence of agencies and organizations that focus on the Corridor and its subareas. The opposite is true. A mosaic exists, and the intent of this report is to provide an overview of the array of public entities that, in addition to those of the national government and state departments of transportation, have formal responsibility for planning and policy-making for some portion of the NEC’s primary transportation infrastructure and service operations.
