NARC Releases Transportation and Evacuation Planning Guide
“Streamlining Cross-Linking Transportation and Evacuation Planning: A Resource Guide for Metropolitan Planning Organizations and Regional Councils” provides guidance for multi-jurisdictional transportation and evacuation planning. The National Association of Regional Councils (NARC) says the guide provides information on current activities and innovations in cross-linking evacuation and transportation planning at the regional level.
“NARC, recognizes that manmade and natural disasters do not stop at city, county or state boundaries and, therefore, require the regional cooperation provided through RCs and MPOs - large, small, urban and rural - pre and post-disaster,” said Stephen Cassano, president of NARC and Selectman, Town of Manchester, CT
