Abstract

In the book new approaches to the decision-making element of transport network development are proposed and analysed. The control of transport facility expansion is instrumental as a governmental guide in economic development. In recent years there has been some discrepancy over the planning of transport networks in developed and underdeveloped countries. The book concentrates on choices of route addition as these are specific and require geographical insight. The study synthesises the policy, philosophical and technical issues involved in transport planning in the following chapters - (1) Transport Investment and Development, (2) The Practice of Transport Planning, (3) The Framework of Transport Planning, (4) On Uncertainty, (5) Deterministic Optimisation, (6) Theoretical Road Network Planning with Certainty, (7) Road Planning with Uncertainty, (8) A Case Study of Road Planning in an Underdeveloped Country, and (9) Robust Road Investment.
