Access Magazine, issue 24, from the University of California Transportation Center
The latest issue of the always-interesting Access magazine is now on line. It features articles about successful bus-rapid transit systems in Brazil, the growth of auto ownership and driving in development nations, and a defense of cul de sacs, among other things. The cul de sac article points out that, though New Urbanists hate cul de sacs, homes in cul de sacs sell for higher prices because they reduce traffic accidents and crime. This issue also lists the tables of contents of all past issues.
You have a choice of downloading the full version with graphics (4.2 MB) or the "light" version with reduced graphics (2.4 MB). You can also go to the Access web site to download any issue back to issue 12 and to the Research Paper site to download hundreds of reports written by University of California transportation experts.
