Population Loss: The Role of Transportation and Other Issues (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

At heart, transportation policy and research are about people: connecting individuals and the places they live, ensuring sufficient and equitable access, and facilitating movement. Whether at the regional, city, or neighborhood scale, the loss of population presents unique challenges where transport is concerned. It is not only about preservation of existing access, but possibly even a question of increased need for connectivity and mobility. Demographic changes that accompany depopulation--aging for example-- also impact existing systems, preferences, and needs. - High quality and focused contributions on a complex and urgent topic - A clear focus on qualitative analyses and mixed method approaches
