The TAR in the Stedendriehoek The Transport Achievement for the Region (TAR) is an instrument aimed at the integration of traffic and transport and spatial design on a regional level to realise a higher level of quality and a higher level of sustainability. As for traffic and transport and spatial matters, the project TAR Stedendriehoek develops the TAR-methodology even further, with emphasis on developing a methodology for integrated planning-processes, focusing on the identification of integral strategic choices for the region. The region Stedendriehoek is one of the pilots where the TAR-methodology is applied. Important issues regarding developing and applying the planning-methodology are: the meaning of sustainability, spatial levels of scale and integrated concept-development. This paper reflects on the context of the pilot, the various parts of the planning-methodology and some results for the region. (Author/publisher)
