TY - JOUR PY - 1985// TI - Transit, commuter, and freight usage of rail rights of way JO - ITE journal SP - 40 EP - 43 VL - 55 IS - 4 N2 - Since the 1960s, there has been increasing interest in rail transit as a way to help solve metropolitan transportation problems in the United States. With this increased interest have come the practical problems of how to weave new routes into the urban fabric in a manner that minimizes adverse impacts and yet, at the same time, provides effective transportation service. One technique for effectively locating rail transit in urban areas has been to share track and/or right-of-way with railroad lines.
