Tools for Creating Vibrant, Healthy, and Resilient Communities

"The Great American Dream of cruising down the parkway, zipping
from here to there at any time has given way to a true nightmare
that is destroying the environment, costing billions and deeply
impacting our personal well-being. Getting from A to B has never
been more difficult, expensive or miserable. It doesn't have to be
this way. Jeffrey Tumlin's book Sustainable Transportation
Planning
offers easy-to-understand, clearly explained tips and
techniques that will allow us to quite literally take back our
roads. Essential reading for anyone who wants to drive our
transportation system out of the gridlock."

-Marianne Cusato, home designer and author of Get Your House
Right: Architectural Elements to Use and Avoid




 

?The book is full of useful ideas on nearly every page.?

? Bill DiBennedetto of Triple Pundit


As transportations-related disciplines of urban planning,
architecture, landscape architecture, urban economics, and social
policy have undergone major internal reform efforts in recent
decades Written in clear, easy-to-follow language, this book
provides planning practitioners with the tools they need to achieve
their cities? economic development, social equity and ecological
sustainability goals. Starting with detailed advice for improving
each mode of transportation, the book offers guidance on balancing
the needs of each mode against each other, whether on a downtown
street, or a small town neighborhood, or a regional network.
