[sustran] Re: Reading list on Parking Management in Developing Cities - Released

[SUTP Team]

Sincere apologies Paul and thanks a lot for the heads up. I have now 
added the link to your publication and updated the document.

Also would like to take this opportunity to request the community to let 
us know of any more interesting Parking studies that could be added to 
the list. We constantly update our material and your contributions will 
be invaluable.

cheers
sunny
