Policy making in London's transport planning

This article discusses several new traffic/environmental schemes proposed for London, and moves by feminist, consumer/worker and community groups to challenge conventional planning procedures. Continuous bus lanes, free or low public transport fares and pedestrianized areas are emphasized over private motoring, to result in lower traffic noise, congestion and accidents. The power of the UK's road lobby, the limitations of traditional professional planners and a lack of open debate are offered as explanations for the resistance of London's planners to enacting such schemes. The author concludes that central government policy of minimizing public transport subsidy and providing roads instead for private transport has led to hostility to more popular plans.

Policies to attract drivers out of their cars for short trips

This paper examines the policies and personal actions that might attract motorists out of their cars onto the alternatives for short trips. The analysis is based on the results of surveys carried out on a project for the UK Department of the Environment, Transport and the Regions. The various events that car drivers say could attract them to an alternative are examined. The actions associated with each of the alternatives to the car are identified. According to the respondents, the most significant action to reduce the number of car trips would be to improve public transport. The potential impact of the implementation of all the actions identified on the number of short car trips nationally is calculated.

How to plan for regional accessibility?

In order to address some of the shortcomings of traditional urban transportation planning, it is argued that a shift is needed from planning for mobility to planning for accessibility. Accessibility is a well-known and studied concept within the scientific literature. Its use in practice however is limited. This paper explores the ways of using the concept of accessibility in planning practice, with a special focus on the phase of policy design. Using the Amsterdam Region as an example, it is illustrated how simple accessibility measures can help planners with the design of integrated transport and land-use policies that call for different solutions than the traditional approach.

我国运输行业上市公司企业社会责任信息披露情况研究

以我国A股上市交易的运输行业上市公司作为研究对象,运用描述性分析和多元线性回归方法对运输行业上市公司企业社会责任信息披露情况进行研究.研究结果表明:2008年我国运输行业上市公司社会责任信息披露比例较以前年度有显著提高,尤其是采用独立报告模式披露社会责任信息的企业数量显著增加;在企业社会责任信息披露的内容和方式上,节能减排等环境方面的信息披露比例有显著提高,但是在安全生产及债权人等方面的信息披露还有待加强;在公司特征方面,公司规模越大、盈利能力越强的上市公司越倾向于披露更多的企业社会责任信息,而且从地域分布上看,沪、深两地区企业的信息披露状况未显著好于其他地区的企业.     

Urban taxis and air pollution: a case study in Harbin, China

Taxis share a high proportion of urban traffic volume and contribute a large proportion to urban air pollution. This paper addressees this context by exploring urban taxi air pollution emissions and possible reduction countermeasures. Based on a survey of Harbin taxis, we have developed different urban taxi pollution emissions models and considered taxi passenger occupancy and taxi average vacant ratio. To reduce taxi air pollution emission, this paper sets a reduction goal and puts forward three kinds of transport management policies. These are taxi market regulation, introduction of electric and Liquefied Petroleum Gas powered vehicles, and the introduction of dial-a-ride services. The paper provides recommendations for managing urban taxi development using these strategies.
