Public Transit Data Through An Intellectual Property Lens: Lessons About Open Data, Teresa Scassa
Public Transit Data Through An Intellectual Property Lens: Lessons About Open Data, Teresa Scassa
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This Article examines some of the challenges presented by the transition from ‘closed’ to open data within the municipal context, using municipal transit data as a case study. The particular lens through which this Article examines these challenges is intellectual property law. In a ‘closed data’ system, intellectual property law is an important means by which legal control over data is asserted by governments and their agencies. In an ‘open data’ context, the freedom to use and distribute content is a freedom from IP constraints. The evolution of approaches to open municipal transit data offers some interesting examples of the …

Sharing The Road: Smart Transportation Infrastructure, Dorothy J. Glancy
Fordham Urban Law Journal
Smart cities require smart transportation. Advanced Intelligent Transportation Systems provide ever-smarter transportation infrastructure for the United States and countries around the world. Among the most advance forms of ground transportation infrastructure is a group of technologies that connect vehicles invisibly to other vehicles through information exchanges. These advanced transportation technologies are of two types: On the one hand, Connected Vehicle Safety Systems use vehicle-to-vehicle dedicated short range communications technologies. On the other hand, Connected Vehicle Mobility Applicatoins use a muhc wider variety of mobile wireless technologies. These two types of technolofies that connect vehicles will increasingly make existing physical infrastructure …

Smart Growth And Sustainable Transportation: Can We Get There From Here?, Oliver A. Pollard, Iii
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This article focuses on the development of smart growth, which includes sustainable transportation policies and more efficient uses of land. Smart growth was developed to combat some of the negative consequences of transportation and land use laws developed in the past fifty years which created dependence on motor vehicles. The article examines these policies and their inconsistency with smart growth, considers steps to be taken toward a more efficient transportation system and the difficulties in invoking these changes, and uses Atlanta as a case study in the opportunities and challenges for smart growth and sustainable transportation policies.

The purpose of this Article is to highlight lessons that may be learned from the area of labor protection in urban mass transit. Public transportation is quite relevant to the issues of federal influence on local public service delivery, because the local transit industry is presently governed my the Urban Mass Transportation Act (UMT Act). This Article traces the development of federal intervention in the urban mass transit industry. This Article goes on to review labor relations in urban mass transit and the policy of federal labor protection. It also examines section 13(c) of the UMT Act. This Article considers …

Urban transportation modes have been limited to private automobiles and mass transit. Problems of vehicular congestion, noise and air pollution, financial limitations constraining new highway construction, and maintenance, fuel crises, and inflationary trends in the cost of operating automobiles have caused private automobiles to become a nemesis in urban transportation systems. Mass transit is also plagued with ills. Limited financial resources have wrought a steady deterioration of service; operating costs have soared; service cuts have been made to minimize deficits while fares have been increased to raise revenue. Arguably, the net result has been substantial decrease in use, resulting in …
