Accession Number: 00486289
Record Type: Component
Digital Copy: Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: This paper reviews recent trends in the pattern of human settlement in the United States as those trends bear on national policies concerning local transportation technology, system design, and infrastructure investment. It offers explicit projections of future settlement patterns by region for urban and rural environs, and discursive but less explicit forecasts of the dispersion of residences and work places within urbanized areas and of the general configuration of these areas. These projections and forecasts lead to estimates of local travel modes and volumes in the year 2020.
