In Creating Green Roadways , James and Matthew Sipes demonstrate that roads don't have to be the enemy of sustainability: they can be designed to minimally impact the environment while improving quality of life. The authors examine traditional, utilitarian methods of transportation planning that have resulted in a host of negative impacts: from urban sprawl and congestion to loss of community identity and excess air and water pollution.

This comprehensive guide offers a practical strategy for rethinking how we design, plan, and maintain our transportation infrastructure.
