EVALUATION METHODS IN URBAN TRANSPORT PLANNING
Evaluation methods, particularly with regard to measures and facilities which are directed to a limitation of car traffic and an improvement of public transport in the cities, are described. The paper deals with some problems concerning the evaluation of alternative plans. Next it reviews some examples of evaluation methods which are in use. It also gives an example of a so-called "evaluation after", viz. An examination of the effectiveness of certain instruments with activities to match. The evaluation methods described are applied to projects, which are all directed to an improvement of public transport in or around Amsterdam. /TRRL/
