description abstract | Transportation engineering is a major component of the civil engineering profession. It involves planning, design, construction, maintenance, and operation of transportation facilities. Advanced technologies in the area of information systems, automation, and telecommunications have the potential of achieving cost savings and productivity improvements as well as enabling new developments in transportation. The purpose of this paper is to review the areas where advanced technologies can significantly affect the way transportation engineering is practiced. Strategies for implementation of the necessary changes in practice are also discussed, along with the expected impact on civil engineering curriculum. The emphasis of the paper is on surface transportation. | |
