   abstract:   We   give   a  model  for  the  description  of  an  urban
   transportation  network  and  we  consider  the  related  optimization
   problem  which consists in finding the desing of the network which has
   the   best   transportation   performances.   This  will  be  done  by
   introducing,  for  every  admissible  network, a suitable metric space
   with   a  distance  that  inserted  into  the  Monge-Kantorovich  cost
   functional  provides  the criterion to be optimized. Together with the
   optimal  design  of  an  urban  transportation network, other kinds of
   optimization   problems   related   to   mass  transportation  can  be
   considered.  In  particular  we  will  illustrate  some models for the
   optimal  design  of  a  city,  and for the optimal pricing policy on a
   given transportation network.
