This book was released on 1996 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document provides a summary of the 1995 Status of the Nation's Surface Transportation System: Condition and Performance Report to Congress. It finds that personal and freight transport demands on our systems are at an all time high and are expected to increase with population and economic growth, but at a slower rate than experienced in past decades. While the U.S. population has increased 1.16 percent annually since 1980, the number of trips per person and miles per trip have increased about three times as fast. The physical condition of the surface transportation system has generally been stable, with States and local governments investing at rates approximately equal to the cost of maintaining the physical plant. Improved highway conditions have, to some extent, resulted in a significant decline in highway fatality rates over the past decade. In contrast, highway system performance has been declining; this is reflected in various measures of congestion. The quality of transit performance has improved with increases in average speed, reductions in wait times and number of transfers as well as reductions in trip times.

This report: (1) identifies key themes emphasized in proposals by stakeholders, incl. assoc. and research org., for restructuring and funding ST programs; and (2) discusses the extent to which various recommendations align with principles developed for evaluating proposals to restructure and fund ST programs.

Book The Economics of Disappearing Distance

Download or read book The Economics of Disappearing Distance written by Börje Johansson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-09-18 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2003. This book focuses on the role of tangible and intangible networks that affect spatial interdependencies in economic and social life. It addresses the question - is the effect of distance disappearing? In examining this question the book considers the types of interaction that bring about globalisation of markets as well as social life in general and the distortion of distance patterns and changes in spatial interdependencies. The contributions elaborate theory and methods by examining hierarchical fields of internal and external influence on regional change; sources of productivity growth in a network of industries, endogenous growth and development policies. The book concludes with an assessment of plan evaluation methodologies for a changing and globalizing world characterized by new economic networks and networking arrangements.
