Riassunto

A concise introduction to traffic engineering, this book covers practical design considerations as well as managerial, legislative, social and environmental aspects of the subject. The author discusses important current topics such as traffic calming, bus priority, transport telematics and sustainable development and fully explains the effect these features have on traffic design. 'Traffic Engineering Design' is written by three practising consultants, who have brought their experience and up-to-date knowledge to the book, making it ideal reading for the student of transport, civil engineering and urban planning.
