Here is a new edition of the recognized standard in transportation engineering, covering important aspects of planning, design, operation, management and regulation. The first three parts of this text/reference deal with planning and other nonengineering aspects of transportation, covering the transportation system of the United States, operation and control of the vehicles, and the planning process, including management and finance issues. The last three parts cover the design of land, air, and water transportation facilities, including streets and highways, railways, guideway systems, land transportation terminals, pipelines, airports, harbors and ports.

First published in 1979, Airport Engineering by Ashford and Wright, has become a classic textbook in the education of airport engineers and transportation planners. Over the past twenty years, construction of new airports in the US has waned as construction abroad boomed. This new edition of Airport Engineering will respond to this shift in the growth of airports globally, with a focus on the role of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), while still providing the best practices and tested fundamentals that have made the book successful for over 30 years.
