Abstract:Much of the progress that has been made toward the development of an intermodal transporting system in the United States has been on the freight side, led largely by private sector initiatives. Conversely, progress toward developing an intermodal system on passenger side in the United States has lagged, especially in comparison with systems in Europe. Much of this difference is due to the large role that the public sector plays in passenger transportation, particularly at the intracity scale, and the uneven development of passenger transportation systems in the United States, aside from the private automobile/public highway system.
