Urban Transport and the Environment for the 21st Century III

The 41 papers include most of the presentations at the conference, and provide an international perspective on efforts to create integrated transportation systems in cities without utterly ruining the environment. The perspective is also multidisciplinary, with contributions from transportation systems, environmental studies, planning, funding, management, vehicle and transport technology, transport modeling, and traffic studies. The main themes are rail transportation systems, bus and freight transport systems, private vehicle studies, general transportation systems, residential and pedestrian studies, studies of user's choices, future vision, and environmental aspects. Case studies come from such places as Argentina, Scotland, the Netherlands, Croatia, Japan, Ireland, and Germany. Reproduced from typescripts, some double spaced. No subject index.
