Shasta-Trinity National Forest

Road Analysis Report

Roads analysis is an integrated ecological, social, and economic approach to transportation planning designed to provide Forest Service officials with critical information needed to develop and maintain road systems that meet the National Roads Policy. The Final Road Management Policy issued on January 12, 2001, emphasizes science-based analysis of forest road systems with the goal of optimum road systems that support land management objectives. The Pacific Southwest Regional Forester directed all National Forests to complete a Forest-level roads analysis by January 12, 2003.
