Abstract:

Do the transportation profession, its policy leaders, and its publications harbor a bias against transit--particularly against rail--and against balanced intermodalism, all of which are vital to livable cities? In this article, a distinguished researcher makes his diagnosis and offers a prescriptive remedy to ensure the profession's positive contribution to livable cities in the 21st century.
