built environment matters

volume 04 issue 01

Includes:

• Avoiding the jam
Whilst Government statistics confirm the UK's dependency on road travel and car usage continues to increase,recent changes in transport policy and the growing consideration of sustainable development at both national and regional level have pushed sustainable transport to the forefront of UK development planning.

• Congestion relief
As Ken Livingstone's controversial congestion- charging scheme gets under way in the city of London, James Whittingham, Casella Stanger, takes a look at the impacts of a similar experiment previously undertaken in Durham.

• Recycling the public image
Only hippies, loonies and anoraks recycle, don't they? Wrong. Because according to the first-ever national survey into who it is that deposits their bottles, newspapers and old clothes into the recycling bank, they are in fact well-read, affluent home-owning couples in their 40s and 50s. With this in mind, Peter Gibson, ENCAMS, asks if it is not about time that environmentalists adjusted their image - and tuned into the public's wavelength?

• Noise annoys
As the debate surrounding noise emissions and its role in sustainable development grows louder, Steve Mitchell of ERM looks at some of the emerging health effects of NOISE, gives some examples of how certain business sectors are responding, and outlines some of the forthcoming policies that will influence how we manage noise in the future.
