    Beskrivning

    Exploring the need for a sustainable transport paradigm, which has been sought after by local and national authorities internationally over the last 30 years, this illuminating and timely Handbook offers insights into how this can be secured more broadly and what it may involve, as well as the challenges that the sustainable transport approach faces.Drawing on a wide range of research and relevant case studies that showcase where the principles of sustainable transport have been, or could be, implemented, the Handbook offers readers a holistic understanding of the paradigm. Contributions showcase the evidence of the continued need for a sustainable transport approach, analyse its core principles, and, finally, discuss what it will take to achieve implementation, considering aspects such as behaviour change, accessibility, governance and politics.Offering a comprehensive overview across the many dimensions of sustainable transport, this Handbook will be an indispensable resource for transport, planning and urban studies scholars. It will also be a useful guide for planners and policy makers looking for advice to advance future practice.

    Recensioner i media

    'Curtis and the impressive cast of international researchers have written a comprehensive resource at the forefront of sustainable transport scholarship. Early on, this text establishes a sustainable framework and makes the case for why the automobile, while transformative, has not been utilized in a sustainable way under the previous paradigm. Then, the book evaluates the wide swath of legacy, new, and emerging transportation options and how they measure up against sustainability metrics. One particularly outstanding contribution is the wide-ranging treatment of land use and the built environment and their critical and symbiotic role in supporting a modal shift. This will be a resource for students, practitioners, and scholars around the globe interested in meeting the challenge of creating sustainable transport systems.'
