Effective Decision Making Starts with a Effective Circulum |
摘要: |
Effective Decision Making and Management of Transportation Systems is based on well prepared decision makers and managers, who should possess knowledge and experiences related to the technologies that are the subject of their decision making. Greater Los Angeles and the surrounding areas are amongst the most congested and polluted in the country. Fortunately, newer less polluting technologies are being developed and implemented. Among them are hybrid and fuel cell vehicles meeting SULEV and zero emission standards. These technologies exist in a multitude of choices and possibilities which require high level of technical expertise in making effective transportation management decisions. For example, LA Metro has recently acquired six hybrid buses for fleet testing. The agency also hired an engineer with appropriate experience in heavy-duty hybrid systems to aid in the service and evaluation process. A decision will be made upon completing the test period whether to extend the hybrid bus program in Los Angeles. With the advent of new electric, hybrid and fuel cell vehicles, the growing need for engineers and technology managers with related knowledge is anticipated. |
