Description: New laws and regulations on mobile sources have created many new challenges for transportation engineers and air quality planners. They must aim to enhance mobility, while also improving air quality. This book surveys key transportation planning aspects and air quality technical details involved with improving both traffic and emission estimation procedures from a broad array of related disciplines. What is the role of transportation control measures in reducing air pollution?

Will Intelligent Highway Systems have favorable impact on the ever-growing emissions problems? Detailed technical papers examine these questions and additional issues concerned with transportation SIP requirements; traffic projections and uncertainties; speed and vehicle mix; public participation; mass transportation; and alternative fuels.
