Transition towards Sustainable Mobility (Transport and Mobility)

Reflecting the dynamic relationships between socio-technical behaviour and change, this book presents leading research on the transition process needed to realize a sustainable transport system. Focusing on making transition happen, this volume looks at various aspects and factors that are involved in materializing this process with implications for transport policy making. The concept of Transition Management and how it can be applied to the transport sector is examined along with sections on transport energy use and emissions, the role of information in policy-making and the evaluation of transport policy to give a comprehensive and policy-focused overview of how and to what extent complex societal transformation processes can be directed towards creating a sustainable transport system. This volume brings together scholars interested in sustainable mobility from various disciplines and countries to discuss the relationships between policy instruments, individual behaviour, institutional practices and the transition toward sustainable mobility.
