Abstract

By the year 2000, more than half of the world’s population will live in cities. This means that not only an extensive exchange of population, goods and information in a globalised world can be expected but also that the transport of goods, population and information must be effectively managed. A city which wants to represent an important node in this network must provide beside appropriate economic, social and cultural conditions and political stability, qualified labour, and an urban as well as an internationally operating interurban system of transport. Moreover, all cities face a common problem: they must possess the capacity to sustain unprecedented numbers of citizens within limited budgets and severe environmental constraints.
