High Speed Rail and Sustainability explores the environmental, economic and social effects of developing a HSR system, presenting new evaluations of the proposed system in California in the US as well as lessons from international experience. Drawing upon the accumulated experience from past HSR system development around the world, leading experts present a diverse set of perspectives as well as diverse contexts of implementation. Assessments of the California case as well as cases from Japan, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Taiwan, China, and the UK show how governments and stakeholders have bridged the gap between the vision and the realities of connecting metropolitan regions through HSR.
Blas Luis Pérez Henriquez is the Founding Director of the California - Global Energy, Water & Infrastructure Innovation Initiative, Stanford University, USA. Elizabeth Deakin is Professor Emerita of City and Regional Planning at the University of California, Berkeley, USA.
