The objective of this project was to explore techniques t help urban transportation planners in systematic comparison of technologically disparate transport systems. Particular attention was focused on urban passenger travel, but the techniques evolved are applicable in principle to all fields of transportation. The 'methodological' portion of the project was concerned with preliminary development of quantified procedures for evaluation of candidate modes. The 'parametric' portion of the project sought to answer the question: Which characteristics must be considered in evaluating candidate transport technologies. This subject area is quite distinct from that of methodology, which concerns the manner in which these characteristics are to be used once they are identified. (Author)
