Book Urban Transportation Planning in the United States

Download or read book Urban Transportation Planning in the United States written by Edward Weiner and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-11-13 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of U.S. urban transportation policy over the past half-century illustrates the changing relationships among federal, state, and local governments. This comprehensive text examines the evolution of urban transportation planning from early developments in highway planning in the 1930s to today’s concerns over sustainable development, security, and pollution control. Highlighting major national events, the book examines the influence of legislation, regulations, conferences, federal programs, and advances in planning procedures and technology. The volume provides in-depth coverage of the most significant event in transportation planning, the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1962, which created a federal mandate for a comprehensive urban transportation planning process, carried out cooperatively by states and local governments with federal funding. Claiming that urban transportation planning is more sophisticated, costly, and complex than its highway and transit planning predecessors, the book demonstrates how urban transportation planning evolved in response to changes in such factors as the environment, energy, development patterns, intergovernmental coordination, and federal transit programs. This updated, revised, and expanded edition features two new chapters on global climate change and managing under conditions of constrained resources, and covers the impact of the most recent legislation, 50 years after the Highway Act of 1962, emphasizing such timely issues as security, oil dependence, performance measurement, and public-private sector collaboration.

Book Proceedings of a panel discussion on the Energy impacts of proposed transportation plans and projects

Download or read book Proceedings of a panel discussion on the Energy impacts of proposed transportation plans and projects written by Don Emerson and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Energy supplies and prices have been recognized as an important international problem ever since the Arab oil embargo of 1973-74. Transportation has been looked upon as one area where considerable conservation could be achieved because as much as 40% of all energy consumed in the US is used to move goods and people. The participants in this discussion represented a diverse set of viewpoints, which contributed to a lively exchange of views on the problems of transportation and energy conservation.

Book Sustainable Approaches to Urban Transport

Download or read book Sustainable Approaches to Urban Transport written by Dinesh Mohan and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-07-02 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As cities become increasingly congested, current transport patterns are unsustainable: heavy in energy use, high in economic and environmental cost, and exacerbating inequity between those who can access high-speed travel and those who cannot. Good urban planning develops human-scale cities and encourages modes such as bicycles, increased zones exclusive to pedestrians within cities, and changed fiscal policies to incentivize public over private transport. Equally, it requires good engineering design to manage road use. Sustainable Approaches to Urban Transport brings together contributions from leading international experts in urban planning, transport, and governance who suggest changes to make our cities more sustainable in the face of climate change. All professionals working in transport and engineering and planning students will find an overview of a broad field in this interdisciplinary collection of essays.
