The Transport System and Transport Policy - An Introduction (Paperback)

Transport impacts on people and businesses in many different ways, and presents some of the key problems that decision-makers need to address. This comprehensive textbook introduces the transport system in a holistic and multidisciplinary way, bringing together the myriad components of transport. This textbook is written for an international readership of undergraduate and postgraduate students in transport and related subjects, as well as for professionals and policy decision-makers across both public and private sectors. Key features include: * Discussion of the importance of transport accessibility and the impacts of transport on the environment and safety. * Policy issues relating to all of the discussed issues and prescribed future options. * Transport evaluation methods and modelling approaches. * Examples to highlight the linkages between components of the transport system - for example infrastructures, land-use, vehicle technologies - and the relevance of these linkages for decision making.
