Transport Planning
Purpose
This module explores the key topic of transport planning – an activity most evident in the local and regional transport plans and strategies that relevant local authorities are required to publish, and which provide the basis on which central government funding is distributed.
Benefits
It is very important that land use planners have some understanding of the dynamics of transport change so that their plans take account of the influence of transport trends and developments on the spatial landscape, and vice versa.
Audience
Urban and regional planners and all those wishing to build and assess their knowledge of the topic.
Learning method

Additionally a comprehensive range of further reading is provided for those who wish to become expert in the subject.
