Institutional Barriers to Sustainable Transport

Mehr zum Buch

Focusing on transport planning in Australia, the book reveals that 'car dependence' stems from institutional practices as much as technical factors. Through case studies in three metropolitan areas, it illustrates how transport policies have become entrenched in favor of private, road-based transport, creating barriers to sustainable mobility solutions. The insights extend beyond Australia, offering implications for urban transport planning in developed cities and other related fields.
