Traffic highway and transportation design principles and practical applicationsThis comprehensive textbook clearly explains the many aspects of transportation systems planning design operation and maintenance. Transportation Engineering: A Practical Approach to Highway Design Traffic Analysis and Systems Operations explores key topics including geometric design for roadway alignment; traffic demand flow and control; and highway and intersection capacity. Emerging issues such as livable streets automated vehicles and smart cities are also discussed. You will get real-world case studies that highlight practical applications as well as valuable diagrams and tables that define transportation engineering terms and acronyms.
