[sustran] Re: Sustainable Transport Textbooks

[Todd Alexander Litman]

Here are some resources that may be useful:

"Sustainable Transportation" chapter of the VTPI Online TDM 
Encyclopedia (http://www.vtpi.org/tdm/tdm67.htm ) has numerous references.

"Well Measured: Developing Indicators for Comprehensive and 
Sustainable Transport Planning" (http://www.vtpi.org/wellmeas.pdf )

"Sustainable Transportation Planning Course Syllabus," by Professor 
Carlos Balsas (http://www.vtpi.org/sustain/balsas_syllabus.pdf )

"Issues in Sustainable Transportation" (http://www.vtpi.org/sus_iss.pdf )

"Reinventing Transportation: Exploring the Paradigm Shift Needed to 
Reconcile Transportation and Sustainability Objectives" 
(http://www.vtpi.org/reinvent.pdf )

We are in the process of developing a subdirectory on sustainable 
transportation: http://www.vtpi.org/sustain


Best wishes,
