Andrés Monzón is a professor at Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, director of TRANSyT (Transport Research Centre), and coordinator of the City-Hub (Integrated Design of Urban Interchanges), 7FP project. Floridea Di Ciommois responsible for the research area on Sustainable Mobility and Travel behavior at the Center for Innovation in Transport-CENIT, Technical University of Catalonia-Barcelona Tech, and is the technical manager of City-HUB (Integrated Design of Urban Interchanges), 7FP project. Di Ciommo has worked extensively on transport and accessibility issues and socio-economic infrastructure evaluation, and is now the chair of Transport and Equity Analysis Cost Action. She has developed her experience in the evaluation of mobility patterns requirements and travel behavior analysis. Currently, she is a member of the travel behavior and value committee of Transport Research Board (i.e. ADB 10) and a member of the ECTRI mobility group.

"This book deals with an issue that is paramount in succeeding the shift towards better mobility practices. Better, in this context, means both user-friendly and environment-friendly mobility. Interchanges play a major role to achieve this goal. And this is precisely the scope of this book."—Dr. Panos Tzieropoulos, EPFL - École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne, Switzerland"An essential reference for understanding the potential for developing the role of interchanges in different spatial contexts and for establishing consistent levels of quality, accessibility and service provision internationally."—Iqbal Hamiduddin, The Bartlett School, UCL, London,"Instead of being limited to specific mobility concerns, the comprehensiveness of the city-hub vision is explicit in its interdisciplinary approach to a wide spectrum of elements and issues, including governance (stakeholders, management, finance and business strategies), technological innovation, social concerns (inclusiveness and accessibility), urban land use planning and environment… a timely and useful publication to address the issues of urban interchanges by proposing a holistic and interdisciplinary "business model" approach."-- Chia-Lin Chen, Journal of Transport Geography
