The Influence of Zoning on the Design of Public Utilities: A Symposium: The Influence of Zoning on the Design of Transportation Services
The assigned subject of this paper would apparently confine it largely to rail movement, but it is now impossible to avoid consideration of all surface transport on the thoroughfares of a city. Transportation must be conceived as covering all carriers used in public service. Traffic is simply the by-product, whether via rail, water, or “rubber”. It is a composite problem, unfortunately not widely appreciated as such, and the street plan is of fundamental importance to local transport, as private right of way is limited to railroads, rapid transit, or grade-separated trunk highways-all very scarce in American cities.
