The transportation infrastructure development process takes on many forms, often as a result of government guidelines and processes. The associated decision-making processes often lack adequate provisions for security, resulting in an immediate need for security considerations to permeate through and saturate the infrastructure project development process. The inclusion of enhanced security considerations requires tremendous commitments of time and resources to develop implementation models. It is difficult to develop new strategies and processes for security improvements without financial resources or political will. Strategic measures must be taken that will enable planners to develop processes that are designed to fill the voids of current processes, emphasizing security-enhancing measures that are lacking in many modern systems. These measures should include a review of current planning practices, modal factors, system factors, financial factors, public interaction, and the role of technology.
