Pages : 377
Book Description
The development of U.S. urban transportation policy over the past half-century illustrates the changing relationships among federal, state, and local governments. This comprehensive text examines the evolution of urban transportation planning from early developments in highway planning in the 1930s to today’s concerns over sustainable development, security, and pollution control. Highlighting major national events, the book examines the influence of legislation, regulations, conferences, federal programs, and advances in planning procedures and technology. The volume provides in-depth coverage of the most significant event in transportation planning, the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1962, which created a federal mandate for a comprehensive urban transportation planning process, carried out cooperatively by states and local governments with federal funding. Claiming that urban transportation planning is more sophisticated, costly, and complex than its highway and transit planning predecessors, the book demonstrates how urban transportation planning evolved in response to changes in such factors as the environment, energy, development patterns, intergovernmental coordination, and federal transit programs. This updated, revised, and expanded edition features two new chapters on global climate change and managing under conditions of constrained resources, and covers the impact of the most recent legislation, 50 years after the Highway Act of 1962, emphasizing such timely issues as security, oil dependence, performance measurement, and public-private sector collaboration.
Systems Analysis of Inland Consolidation Centers for Marine Cargo

Book Description
The technical note documents a study to develop analytical techniques for use in optimizing the locations and characteristics of inland centers to facilitate the flow of containerizable marine cargo. Such centers would perform the consolidation of small lots of break-bulk general cargo into container loads for export; for the reverse flow, they would carry out the handling and unloading of import containers for cargo distribution. Performance of these functions inland, rather than exclusively at or near the ports involved, should result in savings to the shipping community from transporting cargo over land in full containers rather than as more costly less-than-carload lots. A mathematical model and associated solution technique have been developed, implemented in a digital computer program to a point compatible with the kinds of information available, and exercised using the body of data and background material accumulated during the fact-finding phases of the study.
