Research and Development of the European Transport Network

COMPARATIVE TASKS

1. The Integration of Land Use Planning, Transport and Environment in European Policy and Research.

There are increasing calls for greater policy integration within European policy documents and research programmes. In the area of land use planning, transport and environment policy, there is widespread acceptance that integrating decisions across these sectors is crucial for sustainable development. Write project papers considering:

· a short overview of academic literature concerning policy integration;

· the importance of policy integration in European policy-making and policy documents;

· an assessment of the importance of policy integration for European research programmes and projects;

· recommendations for promising areas of research concerning policy integration in relation to transport, land use planning and environmental issues.

The objective for this project is to upgrade and further develop the existing transtools model to a new and improved European transport demand network model.
