Synthesizing current understandings on the relationship between transport and land use, this timely Handbook proposes an agenda for research and practice that leads toward more human-centered communities within an increasingly urbanized world facing rapid technological change. Chapters explore the role of institutional policies and informal cultural contexts in influencing transport and land use systems, before examining the impacts of transportation and land use decisions across multiple areas, including equity, public health, climate, environment, and lifestyle preferences.

‘Framed around human-centric planning, this edited volume provides fresh insights and interdisciplinary perspectives on the current and emerging issues in transportation and land use. For academics and practitioners alike, the Handbook will be an invaluable resource on the nexus between transport and land development and the urban economic, environmental, and social challenges.’
– Kelly Clifton, University of British Columbia, Canada

‘Getting the connections between transportation and land use right is vital to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and securing mobility justice. Drawing from multiple disciplines, this volume provides conceptual, empirical, methodological, and practical insights into those connections across both old and new challenges. An indispensable reference for academics and practitioners alike.’
– Susan Handy, University of California, Davis, US

‘A comprehensive, cross-disciplinary tour of the all-important transport-land use connection. The Handbook is highly topical and informed by top-notch research. Its international scope and attention to some of today’s most pressing challenges, like planning in an era of pandemics and automated technologies, are particular strengths. Recommended to transportation professionals and policymakers alike.’
