Overview
Proceedings of the Fourth International Conference sponsored by the Committee of Advanced Technology of the Urban Transportation Division and the Highway Division of the ASCE, Capri, Italy, June 27-30, 1995. This collection of over 120 papers focuses on how technical innovations in transportation engineering can offer solutions to the challenges of increasing congestion, safety problems and environmental issues, and critical budget constraints that face transportation engineers. Theoretical and practical papers feature topics such as automatic vehicle monitoring, advanced traveler information systems, real-time traffic-control, automated payment systems, and advanced rail, air and sea systems.
