Fundamentals of Transportation Engineering
Jon D. Fricker
Preference :
This is the seventh version of Edition 2. The first edition of Fundamentals of Transportation Engineering
(FTE1) was published in 2004. Since 2004, new editions of several well-known manuals and other
references have been published. Furthermore, much of the data that appeared in FTE1 has become
outdated. For these reasons, the second edition of FTE was published in June 2014 and distributed by
academicpub.com, followed by several subsequent versions
As with the previous versions, Fundamentals of Transportation Engineering continues to:
(1) Cover topics beyond the highway mode. Chapters 10-12 cover the transit, air, and freight modes.
Chapter 13 on Sustainable Transportation includes non-motorized transportation and new
technologies.
(2) Allow use of reading assignments to replace a traditional “lecture”. This increases class time for
taking student questions about the reading, working problems, and facilitating discussions.
