Creating Resilient Transportation Systems: Policy, Planning and Implementation demonstrates how the transportation sector is a leading producer of carbon emissions that result in climate change and extreme weather disruptions and disasters. In the book, Renne, Wolshon, Murray-Tuite, Pande and Kim demonstrate how to minimize the transportation impacts associated with these urban disasters, with an ultimate goal of returning them to at least status quo in the shortest feasible time.
- Assesses the short and long-term impacts of transportation systems on the natural environment at local, regional and global scales
- Examines transportation systems in relation to risk, vulnerability, adaptation, mitigation, sustainability, climate change and livability
- Shows how urban transportation investments in transit, walking and bicycling result in significantly lower per capita carbon emissions when compared to investing in sprawling, automobile dependent regions

Acerca del autor
Dr. Brian Wolshon is the Edward A. and Karen Wax Schmitt Distinguished Professor of Engineering in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Louisiana State University (LSU), where he has been a faculty member since January 1997. He is the founding Director of the US DOT-sponsored Gulf Coast Research Center for Evacuation and Transportation Resiliency. An internationally recognized expert in emergency evacuation and transportation resilience, Dr. Wolshon chaired the Transportation Research Board’s Committee on Emergency Evacuation for 17 years, having founded it in 2001. He has authored hundreds of reports, book chapters, and scientific journal papers, including notable works such as the 7th Edition of the Institute of Transportation Engineers’ Traffic Engineering Handbook. His research has significantly advanced the understanding of mass evacuations and is frequently cited by academics and practitioners alike. Dr. Wolshon’s expertise is sought after by media organizations worldwide, leading to numerous interviews across various platforms.
Dr. Anurag Pande is Associate Professor of Civil Engineering at Cal Poly State University. At Cal Poly he also holds the position of Faculty Liaison for Community based Learning. His role involves engaging the municipal leadership (e.g., City Managers, CEOs of local Air Pollution Control Districts among others) on a variety of issues ranging from resilience, sustainability, and environmental justice to facilitate the partnership between faculty and community partners for integrating community based projects into the Cal Poly curriculum. He is member of the TRB committee on Emergency Evacuation (ABR30) and Safety Data Analysis and Evaluation (ANB20).
He is the Editor of the recently released 7th Edition of the Traffic Engineering Handbook for ITE (Institute of Transportation Engineers). The current edition of the handbook, for the first time, goes beyond the traditional automobile-centric solutions and provide the decision makers and professionals with the tools to integrate complete street infrastructure addressing the needs of all modes into the urban and suburban environments.
Dr. Pamela Murray-Tuite is an Associate Professor in the Glenn Department of Civil Engineering at Clemson University. She has been involved in over 30 research projects sponsored by the National Science Foundation, Virginia Center for Transportation Innovation and Research (VDOT), National Institutes of Health, Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles, Northern Virginia Transportation Commission, Virginia Tech Center for Community Sustainability and Resilience, and University Transportation Centers, among others. She specializes in unusual conditions in the transportation system, including evacuation and network and resilience analysis. Her work often involves multi-disciplinary efforts, striving to help bridge the gap between social science and transportation engineering, especially in the context of disasters/disruptions and household decision making. Dr. Murray-Tuite has over 50 refereed journal publications, 1 book on evacuation modeling, and 3 book chapters. She has recently served as an external advisor to the European Union funded project Management of Weather Events in the Transport System (MOWE-IT), is an Associate Editor for Transportation Research Part C, and is the Vice-Chair of the Transportation Research Board’s Emergency Evacuation Committee.
Karl Kim is Professor of Urban and Regional Planning at the University of Hawaii at Manoa, where he also holds appointments in the School of Architecture and the Center for Korean Studies.

Derecho al desistimiento
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
-
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
-
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
-
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
-
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts. The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
-
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
