Abstract

Should only the conventional trains and buses be regarded as public transportation in the true sense of what must be its definition? What should be the nature of the public transportation? Through discussion about these questions, this report will present the proposition that in order to have effective and practical public transportation which fully serves people who own neither cars nor driver's licenses, some new ideas for transit systems serving the public must be developed through re-design of the existing traffic facilities.(a) (TRRL)
