Informing transportation policy choices : celebrating the 20th anniversary of Transportation Research Board policy studies / by National Research Council (U.S.).Transportation Research Board.(CARDINAL)141287;
Committees of the Transportation Research Board (TRB) have played a major role in the transportation policy arena. Their work has generated findings and recommendations that have helped frame the issues, shape the debate, and inform the policy-making process. The following sections present highlights of the reports produced by the committees to address eight overarching objectives of transportation policy: improving passenger travel, delivering goods to market, managing risk, providing for security against terrorism, protecting the environment, achieving energy conservation, managing human resources, and conducting public-sector research and development (R&D). Interested readers will find much greater detail in the reports themselves.Ch. 1. Improving Passenger Travel -- Reducing Metropolitan area Congestion -- Improving Intercity Travel -- Ch. 2. Delivering Goods to Market -- Enhancing Freight Productivity -- Expanding Freight Capacity -- Ch. 3. Managing Risk -- Infrastructure Safety -- Regulation of Drivers -- Informing Consumer Choices -- Monitoring Hazardous Materials shipments -- Safer Travel to School -- Ch. 4. Providing for Security Against Terrorism -- Security Strategies -- R&D for Transportation Security -- Ch. 5.
