This comprehensive and accessible textbook introduces the basic concepts of transport policy and decision-making to students of transport policy, transport planning, urban transport, transport evaluation and public policy.

- The basics of transport planning and traffic theory deemed necessary to understand policy implications of issues including congestion, safety and parking.
- Potential solutions to problems such as road user charges, travel demand management, voluntary travel behavior change, transport system management and public transport investment.
- Prescriptions for technological change.
