DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book contains the papers presented at the nineteenth annual International Conference on Urban Transport and the Environment. The papers cover research on how to minimise ecological and environmental impacts from urban transportation systems, make them sustainable, and use them to improve the socio-economic fabric of the city. Papers also address the concerns about the safety, security and efficiency of the systems.Topics covered include: Urban transport planning and Management; Transportation demand analysis; Traffic integration and control; Intelligent transport systems; Transport modelling and simulation; Land use and transport integration; Public transport systems; Environmental and ecological aspects; Air and noise pollution; Safety and security; Energy and transport fuels; Economic and social impact; and Advanced transport systems.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFor many years the integration of the location of land use and activities in spatial systems, as well as the provision of transport in movement of goods, services and people, has been recognized as a challenge amongst various specialists, including: engineers, transportation planners, economists, environmentalists, urban and regional planners and developers. The purpose of this book is to address transportation modelling in terms of technology, techniques and methodology application in context to the interface between transportation systems, land use planning, and environmental challenges and application. The methodology of transportation modelling is applied to international practices and application based on specific case studies, inclusive of public transportation projects; transportation modelling techniques in practice; international research agenda; network design and channel strategies; strategic planning; application of technology in traffic surveys and interpretation; emissions from transportation systems; application of mathematical models and the interface between environment, land use and development in terms of location in space and the resulting activities. Of value to both theorists and practitioners, this book references the integration of transportation modelling techniques within an interdisciplinary environment inside all spatial systems.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe continuing requirement for better urban transport systems and the need for a healthier environment have led to an increased level of research around the world. This is reflected in the proceedings presented at the well-established International Conference on Urban Transport and the Environment in the 21st Century. This volume presents the steady growth in research into urban transport and will be of particular interest to engineers, scientists and managers working in industry, universities, research organizations and government; involved in the planning and management of urban transportation systems and transport policy.The variety of topics covered are of primary importance for analysing the complex interaction in the urban transport environment and for establishing action strategies for transport and traffic problems. Featured topics include: Transport Modelling and Simulation; Public Transport Systems; Traffic Integration and Control; Infrastructure and Maintenance; Transport Sustainability; Environment and Ecological Aspects; Air and Noise Pollution; Energy and Transport Fuels; Transport Security and Safety; Road and Parking Pricing; Economic and Social Impact; Land Use and Transport Integration; Advanced Transport Systems; Transportation Demand Analysis.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAs sustainable development continues to dominate current government agendas throughout Africa, this manual explores how to set and achieve goals for specific programs throughout the continent. Discussing challenges such as expanding populations and urbanization, this study provides details on how to better plan, evaluate, and expand for sustainable development, including already established entities such as the African Union and the New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD). Research on the role of women, the strengthening of small businesses, and how to better structure policy and local government are explored in both regional and continental contexts.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe fragmentation of South Africa's cities persists despite the ending of apartheid. New forms of segregation are emerging in the context of globalisation and a largely neo-liberal policy environment. This poses an enormous challenge for policy-making, planning, and community activism. Although there has been an improvement in service infrastructure in certain parts of South African cities since 1994, the major structural changes required to alter the trajectory of urban change have not yet happened. This book provides a provocative, careful, analytical perspective on the problems of fragmentation, with particular reference to the provision of urban shelter. The cross-national nature of the author team reflects the fact that many of the issues facing South African cities are being experienced globally. This is a fascinating book. The text is both theoretical and practical. It will be of great value to policy-makers, planners, community leaders, and students in the field of development and the built environment.
