Developments that design out the car

Across the UK, new developments are being designed, consented, and built out with underpowered and inconsistent approaches to the important role shared transport can play in delivering sustainability. In this context, the panel will engage with the issues raised in CoMoUK’s new report ‘New developments and shared transport: cutting car dependency’ (link below) discussing ways that we can encourage built-environment stakeholders to implement shared transport offerings in new developments and the reasons for doing so.

The event will be a roundtable format with six expert contributors discussing the key topics raised in the CoMoUK report. After each topic is debated by the panel, we will invite audience questions and comments for the panel’s response.

We would ask that all attendees make themselves aware of the report’s contents to ensure a lively and robust debate.

• Cameron Laird, Senior Planner @ City of Edinburgh Council Planning (Granton Waterfront project)
