What Are the characteristics in this course 1. It is taught both in English and Chinese. You student please fill a table, then I can know the practical situations about your real English capacities 2. Every student should know how to read English materials. In meantime, each chapter of Transport systems and Traffic Control will be given to one student to read and translate into chinese. After then, every student will do a brief presentation based on your chapter 3. Every student may have different background, but in this course,it will contain what it should include. Every student should learn himself what he does not know in his free time

Chapter One Introduction 1. I What are transport systems Transport is an important element in economic development and affords the social and political interactions that most people take for granted Transport is provided across a range of networks. These have grown with time as technology improvement and innovation have allowed individuals to develop new networks and refine the systems that exist (foot, pack animal, wheel, boat, ship, steam power, jet power telecommunication.)
Chapter One Introduction 1.1 What are transport systems: Transport is an important element in economic development and affords the social and political interactions that most people take for granted. Transport is provided across a range of networks. These have grown with time as technology improvement and innovation have allowed individuals to develop new networks and refine the systems that exist. (foot, pack animal, wheel, boat, ship, steam power, jet power, telecommunication…)
Chapter One Introduction 1. 2 What is traffic control system Traffic control systems are the most visible element of the urban infrastructure They are not just physical systems like telephones or sewers or streets although their technological elements, traffic lights, signs, and painted pavements, fit that description. Rather, they are systems that attempt to impose a strong social control over the most fundamental of human behaviors whether to move or be still. Traffic engineers must control police, drivers, and pedestrians. For most other elements of the urban infrastructure, controlling the behavior of users did not constitute the primary goal of designers. 1 For traffic engineers, understanding and manipulating the behavioral patterns of drivers and pedestrians proved to be a more important problem than the control mechanisms themselves. Traffic engineers learned rapidly to pay careful attention to ergonomics(人机工程学), the inter face between people and machines
