A society, therefore, without an advanced transportation system remains primitive. In recent years public awareness of transportation issues seems to have increased as our national transportation problems have been more widely publicised. "A viable transportation network contributes to improved living standards through promotion of regional specialisation and tends to broaden the perspectives of nations and individuals involved. Transportation is indispensable to commerce and it is certain that it will always exist. Transportation is a major cost item in the nation's economy and will not lose its importance in that regard. Failure to perform transportation related research will seriously affect a firm's competitive posture."Automobile use has significant implications with respect to contemporary concerns involving pollution, congestion and energy conservation. The need to attain a balance between city planning and its traffic is the key problem of urban transportation policy."Problem yet to be solved is transportation planning which will result in solution that are far more energy efficient and that preserve the livability of our communities when two fundamental changes are made in our thinking about transportation. First, solutions must be rooted in awareness that the end use of transportation is convenient, safe and efficient access rather than simply moving more cars. At the same time, transportation planning must evaluate and respond to the true costs of varying solutions. More precisely the present book provides some important conclusions in this direction through a systematic study of effective transportation system. The whole study, revolves around the broad objective: "To develop a transportation system that better serves the goals of protecting environment and community quality and promoting energy, efficiency and economic development." "The present book contains eight chapters and three annexures followed by a comprehensive bibliography. Keeping in view the pivotal position of Delhi in the country, the present study has been made with special reference to Delhi." (jacket) 192 pp. N� de r�f. du vendeur 49767
