Book excerpt: In 1967 FHWA recommended that the HRB committee on parking develop a new publication to update and revise BPR's 1956 publication, "Parking guide for cities." In the present study, the committee attempts to view parking across the entire spectrum from the home to the central business district. Eight major topics are addressed: parking characteristics, zoning, parking programs, parking studies, location and design, operation, parking at transit stations, and curb parking. The three appendices comprise a glossary of terms, legal aspects of parking and public use, and change-of-mode facilities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Viewing transportation through the lens of current social, economic, and policy aspects, this four-volume reference work explores the topic of transportation across multiple disciplines within the social sciences and related areas, including geography, public policy, business, and economics. The book’s articles, all written by experts in the field, seek to answer such questions as: What has been the legacy, not just economically but politically and socially as well, of President Eisenhower’s modern interstate highway system in America? With that system and the infrastructure that supports it now in a state of decline and decay, what’s the best path for the future at a time of enormous fiscal constraints? Should California politicians plunge ahead with plans for a high-speed rail that every expert says—despite the allure—will go largely unused and will never pay back the massive investment while at this very moment potholes go unfilled all across the state? What path is best for emerging countries to keep pace with dramatic economic growth for their part? What are the social and financial costs of gridlock in our cities? Features: Approximately 675 signed articles authored by prominent scholars are arranged in A-to-Z fashion and conclude with Further Readings and cross references. A Chronology helps readers put individual events into historical context; a Reader’s Guide organizes entries by broad topical or thematic areas; a detailed index helps users quickly locate entries of most immediate interest; and a Resource Guide provides a list of journals, books, and associations and their websites. While articles were written to avoid jargon as much as possible, a Glossary provides quick definitions of technical terms. To ensure full, well-rounded coverage of the field, the General Editor with expertise in urban planning, public policy, and the environment worked alongside a Consulting Editor with a background in Civil Engineering. The index, Reader’s Guide, and cross references combine for thorough search-and-browse capabilities in the electronic edition. Available in both print and electronic formats, Encyclopedia of Transportation is an ideal reference for libraries and those who want to explore the issues that surround transportation in the United States and around the world.

Book excerpt: Bike & Ride: Bicycle Access and Parking for Subway and Commuter Rail Users is a project that seeks to increase the amount of secure bicycle parking at transit locations to allow people to ride their bicycles to a transit station, securely park their bicycles and continue their commute on the subway or commuter rail. Many people do not live within a reasonable biking distance to work, but are within a reasonable biking distance to transit. This bikable distance to transit provides an opportunity for the use of cycling as a viable form of virtually carbon-free commuting. This plan for bike parking near transit in New York City, includes an inventory of citywide subway stations and commuter rail stations that can accommodate site specific bicycle parking. Cycling as a form of commuting has the potential to reduce congestion on the roadways by lowering the number of vehicles on the street. The objective is not only to provide bicycle parking to meet current demand but to encourage potential riders to include cycling as a link in their multi-modal commuting chain. This project identifies transit stations within the five boroughs and recommends bicycle parking solutions to meet documented bicycle activity. The data collected in this study will be used by the NYC Dept of Transportation (CDOT) CityRacks program for immediate installation of bicycle racks along the (7) subway line in Queens as well as future bicycle rack installations at other stations. The study will also explore the feasibility of long-term indoor bicycle parking at transit stations with underutilized space and high demand for bicycle parking.

Download or read book Trains Buses People written by Christof Spieler and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2018-10-23 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the best transit cities in the US? The best Bus Rapid Transit lines? The most useless rail transit lines? The missed opportunities? In the US, the 25 largest metropolitan areas and many smaller cities have fixed guideway transit—rail or bus rapid transit. Nearly all of them are talking about expanding. Yet discussions about transit are still remarkably unsophisticated. To build good transit, the discussion needs to focus on what matters—quality of service (not the technology that delivers it), all kinds of transit riders, the role of buildings, streets and sidewalks, and, above all, getting transit in the right places. Christof Spieler has spent over a decade advocating for transit as a writer, community leader, urban planner, transit board member, and enthusiast. He strongly believes that just about anyone—regardless of training or experience—can identify what makes good transit with the right information. In the fun and accessible Trains, Buses, People: An Opinionated Atlas of US Transit, Spieler shows how cities can build successful transit. He profiles the 47 metropolitan areas in the US that have rail transit or BRT, using data, photos, and maps for easy comparison. The best and worst systems are ranked and Spieler offers analysis of how geography, politics, and history complicate transit planning. He shows how the unique circumstances of every city have resulted in very different transit systems. Using appealing visuals, Trains, Buses, People is intended for non-experts—it will help any citizen, professional, or policymaker with a vested interest evaluate a transit proposal and understand what makes transit effective. While the book is built on data, it has a strong point of view. Spieler takes an honest look at what makes good and bad transit and is not afraid to look at what went wrong. He explains broad concepts, but recognizes all of the technical, geographical, and political difficulties of building transit in the real world. In the end,Trains, Buses, People shows that it is possible with the right tools to build good transit.
