	EH.Net Encyclopedia: Urban Mass Transit In The United States
		In the United States mass transit has, for the most part, meant some kind of local bus or rail service, and it is on these modes that this article focuses.
		The history of mass transit on land in the United States begins in the 1830s with the introduction of horse-drawn omnibuses and streetcars in Eastern cities.
		Another breakthrough came with the Highway Act of 1973, which gradually allowed states to abandon planned freeways and use their Trust Fund allocations for the capital costs of mass transit projects, though these would be matched at a less generous rate.

		The United States does not have an official language at federal level; nevertheless, English is the first and/or only language of the overwhelming majority of the population and serves as the de facto official language: English is the language used for legislation, regulations, executive orders, treaties, federal court rulings, and all other official pronouncements.

	Keeping The Noise Down - Highway Traffic Noise Barriers - FHWA (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Highway traffic noise tends to be a dominant noise source in our urban, as well as rural, environment.
		The State transportation department must determine if there will be traffic noise impacts, when a project is proposed for (1) the construction of a highway on new location or (2) the reconstruction of an existing highway to either significantly change the horizontal or vertical alignment or increase the number of through-traffic lanes.
		Residents adjacent to a highway sometimes feel that their noise levels have increased substantially, because of the construction of a noise barrier on the opposite side of the highway.
