Sustainable Transport
Purpose
This knowledge builder focuses on sustainable transport which is intimately linked with planning; planning policies that seek to influence the locations of activities probably have more influence on the sustainability of transport systems than anything else.
Benefits
The concept of sustainability underlies much of the framework of planning guidelines to which land use planners must adhere and with which transport plans should be consistent.
Audience
Urban and regional planners and all those wishing to build and assess their knowledge of the topic.
Learning method
A detailed overview of the key topic of travel patterns that are environmentally sustainable. Additionally a comprehensive range of further reading and web site links are provided for those who wish to become expert in the subject. Includes voluntary self assessment for recording continuous professional development (CPD).
