Federal law requires the Transportation Council to address the security of the transportation system for motorized and non-motorized users in the transportation planning process. The Transportation Council recognizes that the primary responsibility for transportation security lies elsewhere. NYSDOT, other transportation service providers, state/county/local governments, and emergency responders are tackling security planning from various perspectives. The Transportation Council will consider examination of security issues and incorporation of security actions using computer modeling and scenario planning in transportation planning and investment decisions.
