No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1987–88 to 1994–95 (before that, 1974–75 to 1985–86 used the number for Department of Classics and Romance Languages and Urban and Regional Engineering); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.
The course develops a number of standard methods for predicting travel in urban areas. General characteristics of urban travel and urban transport systems are presented along with a discussion of typical issues pertaining to urban areas. Methods used to evaluate alternatives and resolve issues are presented. These include trip generation, trip distribution and mode split.
As printed in the 1989–90 to 1994–95 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original. Later calendars (1995–96 on) aren’t on uwloo.
