But the ways in which an engineer measures success – speed, journey time, efficiency – are often not the way that passengers think about a good trip. We are not cargo. We choose how and when to travel, influenced not only by speed and time but by habit, status, comfort, variety – and many other factors that engineering equations don’t capture at all.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs we near the practical, physical limits of speed, capacity and punctuality, the greatest hope for a brighter future lies in adapting transport to more human wants and needs. Behavioural science has immense potential to improve the design of roads, railways, planes and pavements – as well as the ways in which we use them – but only when we embrace the messier reality of transport for humans.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is the moment. Climate change, the coronavirus pandemic and changing work–life priorities are shaking up long-held assumptions. There is a new way forward. This book maps out how to design transport for humans.","brand":"London Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42969280184575,"sku":"9781913019358","price":22.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781913019358_s600x595.jpg?v=1780500613","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9781913019358","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
