ABSTRACT
In the UK, a key policy objective has been to reduce the need to travel, especially by car, and this has been central to planning guidance, principally PPG13.1 The means to achieving this objective has been through improving the choice of travel by different modes of travel, by reducing trip lengths through land use planning decisions, and by limiting the use of the car through a range of demand management methods. Much of this thinking has predated the more recent discussions about sustainable transport, yet the thinking behind PPG13 is still central to the integration of planning and transport in current practice.
