METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION PLANNING

While emphasizing the transportation planning process, the contributors to this volume offer an insight into an interdisciplinary approach to solving metropolitan transportation problems. Consisting of engineers and planners as well as an architect, urban designer, and landscape architect, these contributors provide a modular "problem solving" framework into which further information on various aspects of metropolitan transportation planning can be integrated. Information on different types of transportation service and impact problems is included as well as discussion on goal identification techniques. Relevant legislation and land use control mechanisms and mathematical programming techniques in solution generation and specification are offered.
