The attitudes and opinions of the general public are investigated with respect to existing and proposed highways by means of surveys, questionnaires, and interviews. The perceived effects of highway transportation on communities, groups, and individuals are reported, along with efforts to stimulate public participation in highway and road planning, including bridges, bypasses, underpasses, and other constructions. Regional, metropolitan, and specific local area interests are cited. Attention is given to safety, economic impact, and various types of transport and carriers. Noise and air pollution opinions are also included. (This updated bibliography contains 144 abstracts, 27 of which are new entries to the previous edition.)
