INTEGRATION OF TRANSIT SYSTEMS. VOLUME II. INTEGRATED EUROPEAN TRANSIT SYSTEMS

This is the second of a three volume report designed to assess the potential for interagency and intermodel integration of transit systems in U.S. urban areas, drawing on an analysis of the successful experience of European systems. This volume describes in detail four major European transit systems (London, Hamburg, Paris, and Munich); gives brief descriptions of six others (Newcastle upon Tyne, Edinburgh, Stockholm, Gotenburg, Copenhagen, and Oslo); and summarizes and appraises the applicability to U.S. transit systems of techniques which have contributed to the success of these European systems.
