Proceedings of the Third International Conference on Transportation Engineering, held in Chengdu, China, July 23-25, 2011. Sponsored by China Communications and Transportation Association; the Transportation and Development Institute of ASCE; Mao Yisheng Science and Technology Education Fund. Hosted by the College of Transportation and Logistics, Southwest Jiaotong University. This collection contains 543 peer-reviewed papers that present the most current transportation engineering research. China has embarked on a massive construction program of a high-speed rail network. This network will change the landscape of passenger transportation in China, but it will also alter the global vision of rapid and long distance travel of people and freight. New technologies in planning, design, construction, operation, and management are needed for the new high-speed rail network and many other modes of transportation.

Prepared for the American Society of Civil Engineers by Economic Development Research Group, Inc. Each report in the Failure to Act series provides an objective analysis of the economic implications for the United States of its continued underinvestment in infrastructure. Reports in the series assess the implications of present trends in infrastructure investment for the productivity of industries, national competitiveness, and the costs for households. Analysis considers both the building of new infrastructure to meet increasing population and expanded economic activity, and the maintenance or rebuilding of existing infrastructure that needs repair or replacement This report on surface transportation encompasses highways, bridges, rail, and transit systems, which enable people and goods to access markets, services, and inputs of production essential to U.S. economic vitality. Topics include: an introduction; the infrastructure shortfall; wages, value added, industrial output, and jobs; regional implications; diversion of traffic due to congestion; the national modal funding gap; implications of maintenance funding (and a funding gap); and conclusions and further research.

Prepared by the Pipeline Infrastructure Committee of the Pipeline Division of ASCE. Trenchless Renewal of Culverts and Storm Sewers describes technologies used by engineers and transportation professionals in renewing culverts and drainage structures under roads, railroads, airport runways, streets, and similar structures. This manual covers topics such as safety, cleaning and inspection, condition assessment and evaluation, description of trenchless renewal methods, and lifecycle considerations. The chapter on renewal technologies presents background information, installation procedures, design considerations, installation requirements, asset management, and requirements for quality assurance/quality control and inspection. This manual will be valuable to engineers, agencies, consultants, and professionals involved with culvert and storm sewer renewal.
