This symposium was held as a joint session during the 2010 National Rural Transportation Peer Learning Conference and AMPO Annual Conference.

Through a keynote address and a series of panels, attendees learned about models for collaboration on planning efforts from five states: Alabama, Iowa, Missouri, North Carolina and Tennessee. Through small group discussion, attendees also engaged in further dialogue on benefits of and obstacles to collaboration, issue areas often addressed through partnerships, and institutional arrangements that facilitate relationship-building.
