Breaking Gridlock - Info and Reading Options

The Open Library:

"In the face of skyrocketing gas prices and mind-numbing traffic, commuters' frustrations are at an all-time high. Addressing our seemingly overwhelming transportation woes, Breaking Gridlock explores a wide range of viable options for getting from here to there.". "In this book, Jim Motavalli - transportation expert and editor of E: The Environmental Magazine - looks at the present state of the U.S. transportation system and introduces the innovations, technology, and array of choices available for reenvisioning the system for the twenty-first century. He takes us to some of America's most traffic-plagued cities and suburbs, offering critiques of current transportation and suggesting models for the future. Along the way, he introduces us to inventors, traffic planners, environmentally conscious commuters, and passionate devotees of trains, ultra-light ferries, even personal "skycars" - people who are making creative contributions to ease the current congestion on our nation's highways.". "Offering practical ideas and innovative concepts, Breaking Gridlock makes a persuasive case for ending the stranglehold that cars have on our lives and for exploring alternatives that can help alleviate traffic, decrease sprawl, and reduce pollution."--BOOK JACKET.
