Urban Transportation Abstracts is an annual publication that features abstracts and research project summaries on planning, designing, financing, constructing, operating, maintaining, managing, and marketing all modes of public transit. Some of these modes are advanced guideway systems, buses, carpools, commuter services, elderly and handicapped transport, heavy rail transit, light rail transit, paratransit, rapid transit, streetcars, taxicabs, trolley buses, and vanpools. Each issue is divided into five sections: (1) abstracts of reports and journals, (2) summaries of ongoing research, (3) a source index, (4) an author index, and (5) a subject index. The issue contains 1,251 abstracts of research reports, journal articles, and other information sources, and 579 summaries of ongoing research. Referenced documents come from both U.S. and foreign sources. The material is arranged according to the UMTRIS classification scheme; that is, abstracts and summaries are grouped by subject area, and within one subject area they are listed in ascending numerical order. Each issue of Urban Transportation Abstracts should be retained because subsequent issues will not be cumulative.
