Much attention is currently being given to the relationship of land use and transportation. At the heart of this issue is the notion of urban sprawl: the wasteful use of undeveloped land on the fringes of urban regions. This article reviews the literature on urban sprawl and provides a historical background for understanding transportation systems in the United States. The author concludes that transportation policy entered a new period after the passage of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991, which required state transportation agencies and metropolitan planning organizations to work together in formulating transportation programs. The author examines the impact of the new approach to transportation and land use planning by examining changes in how transportation decisions are related to statewide and regional land use issues in Pennsylvania.
