| Abstract | This report surveys the near term opportunities for energy conservation in passenger and freight transportation. The present (1972) transportation energy flows and modal efficiencies are characterized. A total of 35 possible conservation measures are discussed and ranked for effectiveness. Their potential fuel savings are projected for 1980 and 1990. |
