This book presents a new approach to urban traffic engineering in an integrated, coherent and accessible way. The material on methods and practice is complemented by recent case studies to illustrate the challenges that confront urban traffic engineering schemes in practice. Although the history and traditions of urban traffic engineering differ greatly between countries, there is an emerging international consensus which this book tries to capture.
