transportation is by people and for them. it is a process of providing mobility and accessibility for people both as passengers and as consumers of the goods. therefore it is true when today there is an emphasis on the considering transportation the most influential development in every society. regional development cannot properly be happened without enough transportation infrastructure and qu...

This paper focuses on one particular demand management policy that is often regarded as radical and generally unacceptable. Road pricing often gets delayed or abandoned due to low acceptability. There are complex interactions and drivers of change in transport management that require cooperation within implementation networks. Single measures that focus on 'sustainable transport' usually addres...

Energy efficiency is one of the key factors affecting energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. By focusing on China’s transport sector, this study comprehensively reviews and compares the energy efficiency performance of passenger vehicles, light-duty commercial vehicles, commercial road transport, commercial water transport, aviation transport and railway transport, and identifie...

Transport sector is one of the biggest emitters of CO2 and it is especially road transport which causes a lot of not only environmental but also health damages. Local air and noise pollutions affect millions of inhabitants in cities around the whole world. Urgent need to move towards substantial improvements in environmental efficiency of road transport is therefore paramount challenge of our c...

This paper presents an architecture model for the development of intelligent systems for public passenger transport by road. The main objective of our proposal is to provide a framework for the systematic development and deployment of telematics systems to improve various aspects of this type of transport, such as efficiency, accessibility and safety. The architecture model presented herein is ...
