Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Study was designed to survey and report on a variety of techniques for improving the utilization of the existing investment in transportation capital facilities. Concepts receiving primary attention were those directed toward reducing peak period transportation demand and/or increasing the carrying capacity of existing facilities. The idea was to identify and explore such low cost techniques, technologies, or management strategies with the hope that some would be found to serve as alternatives to increased investment in transportation capital facilties. A survey and analysis of twenty-one candidate techniques was performed to provide a balanced assessment of the promise of low cost alternatives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urban transportation problems abound across America, including jammed highways during rush-hours, deteriorating bus service, and strong pressures to build new rail systems. Most solutions attempt either to increase transportation capacity (by building more roads and expanding mass transit) or to manage existing capacity (through HOV restrictions, exclusive bus lanes, and employer-based policies such as flexible work hours). This book develops an alternative solution to urban transportation problems based on economic analysis, but well aware of the political constraints on policymakers. The authors estimate that efficient pricing and service policies could save more than $10 billion in annual net benefits over current practices, but argue that powerful, entrenched political and institutional forces will continue to thwart efficient economic solutions to improve urban transportation. They believe, however, that some form of privatization would likely improve social welfare more than an efficient public sector system. Facing fewer operating restrictions, greater economic incentives, and stronger competitive pressures, private suppliers could substantially improve the efficiency of urban operations and offer services that are more responsive to the needs of all types of travelers. The authors conclude that policymakers have bestowed huge benefits on the public by allowing the private sector to play a leading and unencumbered role in the provision of intercity transportation. Public officials should take the next step and allow the private sector to play a leading role in the provision of urban transportation.
