Descrição do Produto
This book is a Festschrift for Professor Dinesh Mohan. The book presents select proceedings of the Dinesh Mohan Memorial Symposium organised by the Transportation Research and Injury Prevention Centre, Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi, in September, 2022. The over-arching theme of the right to safety by design of the
vulnerable in todays urban society is the core concern of this book; sustainable transportation, built-form, and clean air are the main concerns that are intrinsically related to this central theme. The promotion of active transport has multiple health issues like cleaner air; integrated infrastructure in urban areas with an emphasis on bicycling and walking in conjunction with public transport; traffic calming; and equity in the community design with an increase in actual and perceived safety and an improvement in the environment.
The book highlights the need of policy makers to address the complexities involved in ensuring safe, sustainable urban mobility for all. It provides guidance to researchers to explore the structural and systemic causes of problems in urban mobility and address them through engineering and design. This book provides a reference text for researchers in the area of urban transport, road safety, sustainable urbanisation, transport and health, public transport, environment, and pollution.
