Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book on city planning discusses how the evolution of urban transportation has influenced the growth of cities over the last century. It delves into the relative strengths of electric rail, motor buses, private automobiles and taxicabs, comparing their carrying capacities and the impact each has on traffic flow. The author argues that exclusive use of private automobiles has dramatically worsened urban congestion, and questions whether there should be such an emphasis on spending available resources on building more roads for cars. The author instead suggests a more measured approach and a more balanced transportation ecosystem that gives consideration to the usefulness of existing mass transit systems and leverages their advantages to help alleviate traffic. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781333092344_0
