Most <br /> r individuals are not interested in how the various components of the <br /> transportation network (roads, rails, trails and sidewalks) function with <br /> one another or how they relate to the feel and function of a community. <br /> Most people are just interested in how to get themselves, their <br /> customers and their goods from Point A to Point B with little delay and <br /> as safe as possible. However, integrated transportation networks that <br /> support a healthy community do not just happen. Considerable thought <br /> and planning is needed to make a system work up to its full potential <br /> and to help support the type of community desired by residents. <br /> Chapter 6: Transportation / 45 <br />
