A new approach to future land use and transportation planning for high-growth cities is presented. The approach employs a genetic algorithm to efficiently search through hundreds of thousands of possible future plans. A new fitness function is developed to guide the genetic algorithm toward a Pareto set of plans for the multiple competing objectives that are involved. This set may be placed before decision makers. A Pareto set scanner also is described that assists decision makers in shopping through the Pareto set to select a plan. Some of the differences between simultaneous planning and separate planning of highly coupled twin cities also are examined.
