This unique guide to urban transportation planning, design and impact estimation brings together the tools needed to translate theoretical planning and design concepts into practical plans. The book illustrates these tools with simplified examples and projects for students to complete. Coverage includes long-term system planning and short-term demand management, providing students and professionals with a basic understanding of transportation problems encountered in actual practice. Transportation Systems and Service Policy is practically oriented, examining different aspects of transportation including the links between the elements of planning and design. For example, it illustrates how policies affecting quality of service, fares, investment levels, and environmental impact interrelate. These links guide the student and professional from "real life" policy requirements to practical solutions and presentation of findings needed for decision making. In addition the book includes examples and illustrations of transportation design projects that depict how transportation service policy may affect the input parameters that shape the physical and operational design of multi-modal, urban transportation systems. The process shown can be done efficiently through the use of analysis formats for estimation by manual means or computer spreadsheets. Transportation Systems and Service Policy will serve as an ideal design textbook for all senior undergraduate and graduate students in civil engineering, who have concentrations in transportation planning, highway engineering, traffic engineering, transportation systems, urban planning, and environmental planning, as well as a useful reference forpractitioners and professors in these fields.
