TRB Straight to Recording for All: The Alternative Fuels Corridor Program

TRB released a series of recordings in October 2018 that examine the Alternative Fuels Corridor Program established under the Fixing America's Surface Transportation (FAST) Act. The program creates opportunities for states to develop infrastructure for vehicles that use fuels other than "traditional" fuels such as gasoline and diesel. This may reduce vehicle emissions by promoting low-polluting or no-polluting options. This series will discuss the background of the program, including the nomination process for alternative fuels corridors, the facility types along which the corridors can be designated, the criteria associated with the designation of a corridor, the signage for the corridors, and possible funding sources. The presenters will also describe several states’ experiences with the designation process and development of the corridor.

This series was organized by the TRB Standing Committee on Transportation and Air Quality. The videos are available on-demand at no cost.

The slides are available.
