Description
This is one of the first books to review a growing trend in transport: the multi-modal interchange. Separate modes of transport are being linked through 'joined-up thinking', and transport designers and authorities are only now able to exploit interchange opportunities.
This book presents examples of how these new opportunities have been planned and designed, and outlines how transfer and mobility can be improved in the future. It also shows that the success of the experience of transferring from one mode of transport to another depends on many factors, including congestion in an already overloaded system, and the way that designers and managers have addressed contingency planning.
International examples are drawn from areas where mobility is most concentrated and the demands on design are at their highest, making this title a compendium of architectural and engineering achievement.
