1. Introduction to Transportation Systems

2. SUMMARY NOTE TO INSTRUCTORS: These slides cover major ideas from the course, and should be supplemented with other materials presented by the instructor.

3. SO WHERE HAVE WE BEEN IN 1.221?  Concepts  CLIOS  30 Key Points  Freight Transportation  Total Logistics Costs (TLC)  LOS for freight modes  Operating issues  Traveler Transportation  Automobiles  Urban Form and Transportation  ITS  Urban Public Transportation  Megacities  Intercity Traveler Transportation--Air, Amtrak, e.g.

4. SOME EMPHASIZED POINTS  The Triplet of Technology/Systems/Institutions  Level-of-Service (LOS)--freight and travelers- -the importance of the customer  The Cost/LOS trade-off  Supply/Demand/Equilibrium  The Vehicle-cycle  Transportation as a component of a larger social-political-economic system--a force for good and otherwise
