Federal, state, and municipal transportation agencies have taken steps to advance the integration of transportation planning and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) to create more unified decision-making processes, reduce duplication of efforts, and support better informed project-level decisions.

The TRB National Cooperative Highway Research Program's NCHRP Legal Research Digest 89: Planning and Environment Linkages: Review of Statutory Authority and Case Law details the origins and evolution of NEPA and the Federal Highway Administration’s Planning and Environment Linkages program.
