A. Small, Professor Emeritus of Economics at the University of California at
Irvine, specializes in urban, transportation, and environmental economics. Recent research topics include urban highway
congestion, measurement of value of time and reliability, effects of fuel
efficiency standards, public transit pricing, and fuel taxes. In 2014 he stepped
down as founding President of the International Transportation Economics
Association, followed by four years on its Executive Committee. He spent four
years as Associate Editor of Transportation
Research Part B–Methodological, and he remains on the editorial boards of
two professional journals. He previously was North American Co-Editor of the
international journal, Urban Studies. He has served on several study committees of the National Research
Council, examining among other things cost-benefit analysis and equity in
transportation finance. His book Urban Transportation Economics, updated in 2007 as Economics
of Urban Transportation (with Erik Verhoef), became a widely cited
reference in the field. He was honored in 1999 with the Distinguished Member
Award by the Transport & Public Utilities Group, American Economic Association;
and in 2004 with the Distinguished Transportation Research Award by the Transportation
Research Forum. He is the recipient of the Faculty Achievement award at
UC-Irvine in 2007, and is a Fellow of Regional Science Association
