SCOPE

Transportation in urban areas relies on the application of technology and scientific principles to plan, design, construct, operate, maintain, and manage in a safe, rapid, comfortable, convenient, economical, and environmentally compatible way the infra-structure and facilities associated with the movement of people and goods. A balanced urban transportation program may better utilize space and energy by improving and upgrading the existing transportation infrastructure and public transport, and by applying traffic control management strategies in order to maintain efficient movement of traffic on existing networks, improve mobility, and reduce traffic congestion, energy use, noise, accidents, pollution, and delays. Demand management measures may include ridesharing programs, staggered work hours, and encouraging the use of carpools, vanpools, and high-occupancy vehicles. Electronic technologies, control software, systems engineering, and integrated applications of advanced surveillance, communications, computer, display, and control process technologies, may be used, both in vehicles and on highways or guideways. Automated guideway transit may include shuttle and loop transit, group rapid transit, and personal rapid transit. This guide furnishes a review of the literature in the collections of the Library of Congress on urban transportation. Not intended as a comprehensive bibliography, this guide is designed--as the name of the series implies--to put the reader "on target."
