该主题的成员与城市规划和再生主题紧密合作，但特别关注交通基础设施设计和空间规划过程中的问题。发展多式联运城市区域的挑战的一个关键方面是在空间和交通发展之间实现更多的整合。由于气候变化问题和可持续交通的重要性已成为国际议程的重中之重，因此我们的研究人员处于影响城市议会议程的这一领域的前沿思想。该小组的成员在为英格兰和苏格兰的政府部门完成的有影响力的研究以及由研究理事会，慈善机构和欧盟资助的项目中拥有悠久的往绩记录。与商业和非政府组织进行了合作研究，并与意大利，荷兰，罗马尼亚，瑞典和美国的机构进行了比较研究。
Members of this theme work very closely with the urban planning and regeneration theme but have a particular focus on the issues around the design of transport infrastructure and the spatial planning process. A crucial aspect of the challenge of developing a multi-modal city-region is achieving more integration between spatial and transport developments. With the issues of climate change and the importance of sustainable transport being high on the international agenda, our researchers are at the cutting edge of thinking in this area influencing city council agendas.<br><br>Members of the group have a long track record of influential studies completed for government departments in England and Scotland, as well as projects funded by Research Councils, charities and the EU. Collaborative research has been carried out with the business and non-governmental communities as well as comparative research with institutes in Italy, The Netherlands, Romania, Sweden and the USA.
