Transport Policy and Planning in Great Britain

A critical overview of the nature, evolution and contemporary challenges of transport policy and planning at the national and local scale while expanding on procedural mechanisms and forging much-needed links with the related discipline of spatial planning.

Transport in the twenty-first century represents a significant challenge at the global and the local scale. Aided by over sixty clear illustrations, Peter Headicar disentangles this complex, modern issue in five parts, offering critical insights into:

the nature of transport
the evolution of policy and planning
policy instruments
planning procedures
the contemporary agenda.

Distinctive features include the links forged throughout between transport and spatial planning, which are often neglected.

Designed as an essential text for transport planning students and as a source of reference for planning practitioners, it also furthers understanding of related fields such as urban and regional planning, geography, environmental studies and public policy. Based in the postgraduate course the author developed at Oxford Brookes University, this indispensable text draws on a lifetime of professional experience in the field.
