Abstract

Intercity transport modes considered are the railroad, the airplane, and the automobile. The bus and the automobile are the urban transport modes considered. Each travel mode is treated as an entire system of passenger transportation. The costs are evaluated in units of dollars, British thermal units (Btu) and man-years of labor, which are required, both directly and indirectly, to provide each unit of transportation service. Data are tabulated.
