Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public transportation is the transport of passengers using group travel systems operating on established routes managed on a schedule for a fee. The public transport used globally includes passenger trains, city buses, trams, rapid transit, trolley buses and ferries. Between cities, travel can be accommodated by intercity rail, airlines and coaches. Public transport systems are characterized by set embarkation/disembarkation points and prearranged time tables. Public transport infrastructure is vital for the smooth transportation of people. This can be exclusive or shared with freight and private transport. This book provides comprehensive insights into the planning, operations and management of public transportation. It discusses the fundamentals as well as modern approaches of this area of study. For all readers who are interested in public transportation, the case studies included in this book will serve as an excellent guide to develop a comprehensive understanding.

Book excerpt: Public Transport is a comprehensive textbook covering the planning of all public transport systems (bus, coach, rail, taxi and domestic air travel) in Britain and other countries with similar systems. The term ‘planning’ is used both in the context of local authority and central government roles and in the work done by transport operators for example, network structures, vehicle type selection. In addition to the various types of transport, the differing needs of the urban, rural and long distance markets are examined. This restructured new edition gives greater emphasis to service quality and marketing issues as well as covering recent changes in legislation, statistics and research findings. Public Transport is of particular interest to transport planners in local authorities and consultancies, managers in transport operations, as well as undergraduates and MSc students of transport planning and those studying for the membership examinations of the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport.
