Summary |
---|
Transportation affects on environmental quality very badly. Subject is focused
on common traffic systems, which are using in Czech Republic. Students are
taking up with energetic and economic aspects of individual traffic systems and
fundamentals of traffic constructions. Students are also taking up with
environmental impact on individual traffic systems. Main attention is focused
on environmental effect of automobile transporation. |
