This comprehensive and accessible textbook introduces the basic concepts of transport policy and decision-making to students of transport policy, transport planning, urban transport, transport evaluation and public policy.

  • Prescriptions for technological change.
  • Discussion of the need for an integrated land transport policy along with a case study to illustrate how this might be developed for a typical metropolitan area.
