Overview

Background & policy context:

Land-use planning measures are perceived as an important means of influencing transport demand and trip patterns in the long-term. However, relatively little is known about the quantitative effects of such measures, nor about the converse effects of transport system investments on the development of land-use patterns.

Objectives:

SESAME aimed to provide city planners with a common set of indicators and methods to facilitate more effective decisions on land-use and mobility policies. From a research point of view, the indicators were intended to support cross-city comparisons, in order to reach a more robust hypotheses and better validation of statistical relationships between indicators.
