Shared Solutions for Active, Collective, and Inclusive Neighbourhoods

Abstract

Urban planning, either from a city or regional perspective, includes the study of land use, mobility, and transport, both of people, goods and services. In recent years, new shared service solutions have been considered to improve transport and mobility by reducing the share of privately owned vehicles. Shared solutions are also seen as a desired solution for urban planning in creating more sustainable neighbourhoods. This paper presents a study designed to map the relationship between urban planning approaches that aim to stimulate shared and active mobility and travel and shopping habits. The findings highlight that introducing several measures to stimulate more sustainable mobility had positive effects, such as reduced car ownership, and as such it should be considered when designing future urban spaces. The paper builds on a case study of Vestre Billingstad community close to Oslo, Norway.
