>University College London has been working in partnership with local
>authorities, transport and planning consultants, the House Builders
>Federation and Central Government to complete a project which investigated
>methods for increasing sustainability in rural areas (especially in terms
>of increasing access and reducing the need to travel) using new housing
>targets. The project was sponsored by the EPSRC in the Sustainable Cities
>programme and ran from February 1997 - June 2000. The research covers a
>variety of interesting topics including:
>
>® The impact of urban form (especially settlement size and provision of
>services and facilities) on travel behaviour and access.
>
>® Techniques for assessing the sustainability of development strategies -
>in line with the revised PPG3 and PPG13.
>
>® Methods for ensuring adequate provision of services and facilities in new
>housing developments - design, phasing, partnerships, etc.
>
>® The planning gain debate.
>
>We wish to disseminate the findings of the project as widely as possible,
>in a sustainable manner. Thus, we chose to deliver the information through
>a website. There is absolutely NO COST for accessing the website, we just
>ask that you complete the questionnaire provided. The website comprises the
>following:
>
>® An Executive Summary of findings
>
>® A bibliography - linked to relevant publications produced by the project.
>
>® A useful links page
>
>® A questionnaire survey
>
>Please visit the web site at:
>
>http://www.bartlett.ucl.ac.uk/courses/planning/URBASSS/Index.htm
>
>and let us know what you think of our findings and the techniques we have
>developed to determine more sustainable development strategies. Your
>comments are essential if we are to improve upon the research. If you have
>any queries regarding the website, research findings or techniques
>developed please do not hesitate to contact the project co-ordinator Joanna
>Williams at the following address:
