Abstract

This paper critically evaluates the policies that are currently emerging to address the problem of transport exclusion and poor accessibility in the UK. It identifies some key barriers to the delivery of more socially inclusive transportation, as observed through pilot study research for the Department of Transport, with eight local transport authorities in the England. It moves on to highlight some potential tensions between this social agenda for transport and the Government’s newly released framework for the delivery of sustainable development, which places strong emphasis on reducing climate change and achieving environmental justice within and between nations.
