Unsustainable Transport

City Transport in the New Century

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book addresses the links between transport and sustainable urban development, from an analysis of the global picture to issues in transport and energy intensity, public policy and the institutional and organisational constraints on change. The central part of the book explores these links in more detail at city level, covering land use and development, economic measures, and the role that technology can play. The final part looks for inspiration from events in developing countries and the means by which we can move from the unsustainable present to a more sustainable future.

---

An overview of the relationship between transport systems and the public policies that shape them, looking at influential factors and examining transport in its urban, national and global context.
