| Summary |
It has long been recognised that the physical features of our cities, including residential and employment densities, the spatial relationship between home, work and community facilities, and the types of transport infrastructure provided, have an important influence on the use made of private and road transport, and hence on transport energy use. The purpose of this study was to estimate the savings in energy use and public sector capital outlays which will flow from changing towards more compact, less car-dependent urban forms. This process of change in urban form is termed re-urbanisation |
