Abstract

Is Urban Sprawl a contagious Fysical Planning Disease? In the Netherlands from 1970 to 2030 Urban Sprawl seems to grow constantly with 1 km/year from 10 km in 1970 into 40 km in 2000 and ceteris paribus into its maximum value of 70 km in 2050. During the already centuries constant maximum 45 minutes commuter yourney trip-time the fraction of the car-commuter trip on motorways grows from 0% to almost 100%. Recent American publications underline very negative social and medical effects of Urban Sprawl. To slow down Urban Spraw fysical and transportational planning measures have been proposed. Mostly to stop or to decrease ONLY the door-to-door car-commuter trip speed, as being the cause of Urban Sprawl, by making separated commuter transportation systems as much as possible.
