Abstract

The American urban political culture has 3 distinctive characteristics. It gives a high value to local autonomy, direct participation in decision-making by elected political leaders, and similar direct participation by private civic leadership. In general, current transportation policy-making processes tend to contradict these 3 properties. In this study of transportation politics in 7 large urban areas examples of these contradictions and solutions are given.
