Abstract

In examining the role of roads and streets into the next century, it is not enough to merely study the likely changes in road and street technology. A wider view is needed as roads and streets supply a means that the community uses to service a set of broader needs - the need to travel, to trade, to socialise, to produce and to consume. It is only after exploring these more basic needs that we will be able to make sensible statements about the future of roads and streets. In addition to needs, the paper discusses motor transportation in general, roads and streets, and safety.
