addresses congestion, air pollution, transit, financing, politics,
and signals. Each user-friendly chapter is designed as lab work,

and incorporates changes resulting from the Intermodal Surface
Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA, 1990) and the Transportation
Equity Act of the 21st Century (TEA-21, 1998). This legislation has

new funds and jobs; as well as set new requirements for monitoring
performance and showing the benefits of a project. ""Transportation

opportunities, a section on software use, summaries of
transportation websites, a list of esteemed transportation
journals, and a glossary of terms used in the transportation field.
