This unique book is for anyone interested in how to justify and
build light rail systems in the age of limited resources and green
technologies. The historical introduction addresses how many of the
problems faced by light rail promoters and planners are not new and
how existing solutions can be used to save time and money. The
planning chapter explains the process of route identification on
the basis of travel patterns and maximizing modal switch. The
engineering chapter shows the costs of infrastructure, equipping
and commissioning a new light rail system. The economic evaluation
chapter shows promoters how each line can be assessed for
viability, comparing the capital cost of construction with expected
revenue, including sensitivity to different fares, market
conditions, and operating costs. In conclusion, the book reviews
how to keep a light rail system attractive to riders and investors
after opening.
