This book, which consists of chapters by different authors, combines social science, planning and engineering to develop an understanding of transportation as a system. It is concerned with the broader nature of transport systems and the implementation of public policy across these systems. Topics considered include urban traffic congestion, environmental intrusion, transport safety and budgetary constraints. The book provides up-to-date information for current researchers and reviews for those who are new to the field. For abstracts of the chapters see C 21981 - C 21909 (ITRD E112435 - E112473).
