Summary

Summary

The 56 papers cover a very wide range of topics relating to environmental dimensions of transportation within and into and out of cities, drawing on studies of cities throughout the world. They cover urban transport systems, environmental aspects, planning, funding, management, vehicles and transport technologies, modelling, future visions, and assessments. Among specific topics are public attitudes towards introducing road pricing in the central business district, choice factor analysis in food shopping travel behavior, the role of signalling systems in the traffic capacity of urban railway lines, an integrated approach to urban transport planning in Santiago, road accidents in Saudi Arabia, and traffic management strategies to reduce air pollution.
