About the Book
This book explores the complex relationship between transport and public policy, providing a comprehensive overview of the interconnections between the two. It examines the impact of transport on public policy, as well as the influence of public policy on transport development.
The book is divided into four parts. The first part provides a theoretical overview of the relationship between transport and public policy. The second part examines the impact of transport on public policy, focusing on the areas of environmental policy, economic policy, and social policy. The third part examines the influence of public policy on transport development, focusing on the areas of transport planning, transport investment, and transport regulation. The fourth part provides a synthesis of the book's findings and discusses the implications for transport policy and public policy.
This book is essential reading for students and researchers in transport studies, public policy, and urban planning. It is also a valuable resource for policymakers and practitioners involved in the planning and development of transport systems.
