=o= Your quickest bet is to get ahold of the Worldwatch Papers
that deal with transportation alternatives.  These are secondary
sources that will point you to plenty of primary sources.  Ditto
for Worldwatch's annual _State_of_the_World_ books.

=o= If you can't get ahold of those, your library should at
least have back issues of _World_Watch_ magazine.  This isn't
as heavily footnoted as Worldwatch's other publications, so
you'll have to dig a bit for primary sources.

=o= Or contact them at The Worldwatch Institute, 1776 Massachu-
setts Avenue N.W., Washington, DC 20036; 202/452-1999.

=o= The reason I recommend Worldwatch so much on these issues
is that they've done a lot of research on transporation alter-
natives in particular, using global sources and a global
perspective.
