Sinopsis

Underground Freight Tunnels explores the revolutionary concept of moving freight underground to alleviate urban congestion and improve air quality. Historically, tunnels have been used for passenger transport and utilities; however, this book focuses on the emergence of subterranean systems dedicated to freight, highlighting their potential to reshape urban logistics. It examines the intricate aspects of tunnel construction, automated freight handling technologies, and the economic and environmental impacts of integrating these systems, arguing that they offer a sustainable solution to the challenges posed by urbanization and e-commerce.

 
The book delves into various tunnel construction methodologies suited for different geological conditions and emphasizes the importance of automated systems, such as robotic loading and centralized controls, for efficient freight management. It also presents a holistic view by integrating technological feasibility with economic viability and environmental sustainability. Case studies, financial models, and insights from engineers and urban planners demonstrate the long-term benefits of underground freight systems, addressing concerns about initial costs and construction disruptions.

 
The book progresses from introducing the fundamentals of underground logistics to exploring tunnel construction techniques and automated systems. Later chapters assess economic feasibility, environmental impact, and social considerations, culminating in a discussion of future expansion and necessary policy changes. It offers practical guidelines for implementation, making it a valuable resource for engineers, urban planners, and policymakers interested in innovative urban solutions.

    THE TORONTO STAR'S  "30 BOOKS WE CAN'T WAIT TO READ THIS SPRING"The updated edition of a Toronto favourite meanders around some of the city’s unique neighborhoods and considers what makes a city walkableWhat is the 'Toronto look'? Glass skyscrapers rise beside Victorian homes, and Brutalist apartment buildings often mark the edge of leafy ravines, creating a city of contrasts whose architectural look can only be defined by telling the story of how it came together and how it works, today, as an imperfect machine.Shawn Micallef has been examining Toronto’s streetscapes for decades. His psychogeographic reportages situate Toronto's buildings and streets in living, breathing detail, and tell us about the people who use them; the ways, intended or otherwise, that they are being used; and how they are evolving. 
    Stroll celebrates Toronto's details – some subtle, others grand – at the speed of walking and, in so doing, helps us to better get to know its many neighbourhoods, taking us from well-known spots like the CN Tower and Pearson Airport to the overlooked corners of Scarborough and all the way to the end of the Leslie Street Spit in Lake Ontario 
    "Shawn Micallef offers an alternative perspective on the shape of neighbourhoods with an updated edition of Stroll, which originally appeared fifteen years ago. His 'psychogeographic walking tours' take us through what he calls the Middle, Westish, Northish, Eastish, and Eastest areas of Toronto, showing us the known and sometimes obscure buildings and features that define Canada’s largest city." – Pamela Divinsky, Literary Review of Canada 
    "Shawn Micallef is the unofficial mayor of Toronto, the genial ambassador the city needs and deserves. As he strolls Toronto’s broad avenues and its little streets, he finds hidden pockets of delight – and weirdness, too. Join him and fall in love with the city again." – Liz Renzetti, author of Bury the Lead 
    "When I moved to Toronto in 2011, Stroll was the first book I added to my library and course reading lists. My students and I get lost in the PATH, sneak into lobbies, and visit the archives with this book as our guide. Micallef’s friendly voice invites us to slow down and notice not just a few landmark buildings but the city’s built fabric as a whole. This updated version offers our collective memory a much-needed affectionate yet critical view of recent changes to the city." – Erica Allen-Kim, Author of Building Little Saigon 
    "Stroll is a delightful and eccentric guidebook, full of clever writing, amusing stories and charming maps that will make you want to strap on your walking shoes and head into the streets of Toronto." – Carol Off, Author/Broadcaster"Shawn Micallef looks at the city in a way we all should more often – he sees it as a living book that is alive with stories just waiting to be told to the attentive observer. In Stroll, he gives us an introduction to just how interesting and surprisingly dramatic those stories are, and how exciting our city is when we hear them." – David Crombie, former mayor of Toronto"A smart and intimate guide to the city that makes you feel like an insider from start to finish." – Douglas CouplandThis new edition updates things in the city that have changed and includes several new walks.
