1、IntroductionThe planning aspects of transport engineering relate to urban planning,and involve technical forecasting decisions and political factors.Human factors are an aspect of transport engineering,particularly concerning driver-vehicle interface and user interface of road signs,signals,and mark
2、ings.Technical forecasting of passenger travel usually involves an urban transportation planning model,requiring the estimation of trip generation(how many trips for what purpose),trip distribution(destination choice,where is the traveler going),mode choice(what mode is being taken),and route assign
3、ment(which streets or routes are being used).More sophisticated forecasting can include other aspects of traveler decisions,including auto ownership,trip chaining(the decision to link individual trips together in a tour)and the choice of residential or business location(known as land use forecasting
4、).Transportation engineering,as practiced by civil engineers,primarily involves planning,design,construction,maintenance,and operation of transportation facilities.Operations and management involve traffic engineering,so that vehicles move smoothly on the road or track.Older techniques include signs
