Transportation Policies: Examples and Lessons
Abstract The approaches to formulating sustainable transportation policies have been applied in a case study in Guangzhou, People’s Republic of China, which is described in Chapter 7. To provide a foundation for the work in Guangzhou, that case study was preceded and supported by reviews of transportation initiatives in several other urban areas worldwide. This research, which extended from the 1990s through 2005, studied examples of transportation demand-side management, transit-oriented development, and intelligent transportation systems. Regarding transportation demand-side management, the research focused on those actions and considerations that occur at the intersection of policy, technology, and institutional capacity. The objective was to determine how local governments can develop environmentally sustainable, socially equitable, institutionally practical, and financially feasible and self-reliant transportation policies and systems, particularly those that apply market forces to influence travel demand.
