(2) Airports;
(3) Harbors and water-borne transit;
(4) Surface mass transit systems; and

The department of transportation shall pay particular attention to the interfacing of the various modes of transportation.

(1) Include projected transportation needs for a six-year period and a schedule of priorities for the construction, modification, and maintenance of various segments of the statewide plan that involve either state-operated systems or county-operated systems that may require state financial assistance for a twenty-year period; and
(2) Comply with county transportation-related plans; county general plans; and all community, development, or community development plans adopted pursuant to the county general plan, to the extent that compliance does not affect the receipt of federal funds.
