Reducing Car Travel in Australian Cities: Review Report
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2003)This paper addresses the issue of managing car-travel demand in large urban centers and reviews two instruments—urban form changes and public transport improvements—by drawing on the experience of Australian cities. Urban ... -
Evolution of Personal Travel in Toronto Area and Policy Implications
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2003)This paper presents a descriptive analysis of the historical evolution of personal travel behavior in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) over the past 35 years. The analysis indicates that in many respects the GTA taken as a ... -
Urban Air Pollution Impact of Modal Shift in School Transportation in Kuwait
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)The objectives of this research study are to (1) determine parents’ perceptions of traffic congestion and its impacts as far as the automobile transport of children to schools, (2) identify reasons for the preference of ... -
Is the Sequential Travel Forecasting Paradigm Counterproductive?
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)The sequential travel forecasting procedure is widely accepted without question by transportation planners, yet its origins are obscure, its effects on practice and research may well be negative, and by focusing attention ... -
Microanalysis of Shopping Center Location in Terms of Retail Supply Quality and Environmental Impact
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)The aim of this study was to analyze shopping center (SC) location distribution for a small city with respect to its environmental impact and retail supply quality. In order to evaluate the retail supply quality for each ... -
Evaluation of Two Trip Generation Techniques for Small Area Travel Models
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)This paper examines the practically of using a single internal trip purpose to generate the production and attraction values for traffic analysis zones in small urban community travel models. In previous research efforts, ... -
Development Conditions and Supply of Housing: Evidence from Hong Kong
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)The objective of this research is to investigate whether a relationship exists between development conditions in government land leases and housing supply and to what extent these development conditions affect Hong Kong’s ... -
Regional Qualitative and Quantitative Aspects of Houses in Tokyo Metropolitan Region
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)In Japan, the number of houses available exceeds the demand in all prefectures. Improving housing quality has gained importance over building new dwelling stock. The thrust of housing policies and programs in Japan is to ... -
Impact of Transportation Infrastructure Development on Modal Choice
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)Due to parallel infrastructure developments in both automobile and alternative transport systems, a modal shift from the automobile to alternative modes has not occurred at its expected level, because of people’s affection ... -
Determinants of Optimal Level of Transportation Infrastructure
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)This paper examines the determinants of the optimal level of transportation infrastructure, estimating the excess amount of demand for or supply of transportation facilities in Korea. The optimal amount of transportation ... -
Sustainable Urban Transportation: Performance Indicators and Some Analytical Approaches
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)Urban governments show considerable interest in formulating policies for a more sustainable transportation sector. In Australia, despite the Commonwealth Government Ecologically Sustainable Development (ESD) Transport ... -
Role of Stated Preference Methods in Planning for Sustainable Urban Transportation: State of Practice and Future Prospects
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)This paper adopts the World Bank’s 1996 definition of sustainable transportation and attempts to identify ways of improving the urban transportation planning process and methodology. After a literature review of related ... -
Use of Belief Function in Brownfield Infrastructure Redevelopment Decision Making
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2001)The decision making in brownfield infrastructure necessitates the consideration of a multiplicity of complex, interrelated issues. However, technical issues, liability issues, financial issues, community concerns, and ... -
Financing Infrastructure over Time
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2001)This paper investigates the problem of financing infrastructure over time when the number of users also changes. The problem is confronted in many fast-growing communities that need to coordinate the timing of infrastructure ... -
Visualizing System-Wide Economic Impacts of Transportation Projects
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2001)The economic evaluation of proposed transportation projects has traditionally been a technical process based on collected data and equations. Future needs must be considered to adequately meet the demands of system users. ... -
Modeling Noise at Elevated Highways in Urban Areas: A Practical Application
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2001)Traffic noise along highways is continuously increasing; with the projected growth in future traffic use, particularly near developing urban areas, it will not cease to increase. As a result, highway noise impacts are ... -
Urban Planning Using Augmented Reality
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2001)A new visual method that is calibration-free augmented reality based on affine representation is formulated for urban planning, and the problems in the process of algorithm application, such as the location of virtual ... -
