| Tiivistelmä: | The purpose of the article is to provide a better understanding of the traffic congestion problem as seen through direct measurement and through the result of public opinion polls made in the USA. Although it is recognized that traffic congestion is an escalating problem in many metropolitan areas, there is no agreement on its present or forecasted magnitude nationwide. The author concludes that, from a national perspective, the traffic congestion problem highlights traditional differences between urban and rural constituencies, as well as the tradeoffs that must be made among competing public concerns. |
