Opis

Charting the development of the travel plan as a concept, this book draws on a range of research-based contributions to determine the state-of-the-art and to explore a series of future scenarios in this area for practitioners and policy makers. Marcus Enoch breaks down the travel plan concept into four axes related to its development; namely, segment, scale, structure and support. He raises a number of questions such as, what makes them special? why are they introduced? and what barriers do they face?

Recenzje

'... the book gives a good history and explanation of the development of travel plans both in the UK and abroad and is of use to those new to the topic. It raises a range of potential ways to re-invigorate travel plans...' Journal of Transport Geography 'Marcus Enoch writes in a clear language, using straight lines of argument... In terms of substance, the book provides a solid overview on MM, particularly with respect to the UK, and particularly for those interesting in planning practice rather than research.' Joachim Scheiner in Erdkunde
