Mobility Management

Purpose

This module focuses on the topic of mobility management – a term well used in continental Europe, and increasingly in the UK, to describe efforts to manage travel demand through so called ‘soft measures’.

Benefits

Land-use planning and mobility management are recognised, both theoretically and in UK policy terms, as having the potential to reduce both the need to travel, as well as journey times and distances, and also to influence the choice of mode.

Audience

Urban and regional planners and all those wishing to build and assess their knowledge of the topic.

Learning method

A knowledge builder which enables planners to achieve an understanding of the management of travel demand. Additionally a range of further reading and appropriate websites is provided for those who wish to become expert in the subject. Includes voluntary self assessment for recording continuous professional development (CPD).
