The CAAA of 199(I will have a major impact on the transportation planning and project development processes and on the operation of the federal-air highway program. CAAA will substantially revise the federalair highway program in ozone and carbon monoxide nonattainment areas due to its provisions for sanctions, conformity, transportation/air quality planning, vehicle miles traveled (VMT). The c...

In recent years, mixed or/and augmented reality,which aims to integrate virtual space with real space have be received a significant amount of attention in research and development. In particular, tangible interface is one of the interesting research growth areas. The hypothesis of this research project is that the introduction of a tangible interface should assist designers and planners to rec...

The need for cooperation in the planning of metropolitan trans­ portation facilities has taken on added significance as a result of the Interstate Road Program with its emphasis on arterial improvement in urban areas. A meeting to discuss this problem more fully was held in October 1958 at Syracuse University. This meeting, the National Conference on Highways and Urban Redevelopment (more commo...

In Japan, disputes over highway projects from residents are now drawing more attention than ever. However, these disputes are rarely resolved through conventional processes using the decide-announce-defend approach. In many cases, dissatisfied opponents try to impede their implementation through litigation and physical obstruction. In the United States, oppositions against interstate highway pr...

In this paper we focus on gaining insight into the residential satisfaction of households near highways, based on survey data collected among 1,225 respondents in the Netherlands living within 1,000 meters from a highway. Ordinal regression was used to study the impact of highway externalities on residential satisfaction. Moreover, we gained first insights into the reactions of people on highwa...

We study two speedup techniques for route planning in road networks: highway hierarchies (HH) and goal directed search using landmarks (ALT). It turns out that there are several interesting synergies. Highway hierarchies yield a way to implement landmark selection more efficiently and to store landmark information more space efficiently than before. ALT gives queries in highway hierarchies an e...
