Accessibility planning for sustainable and resilient cities
Accessibility is an important concept in regards to the integration of land-use and transport planning. Planning for sustainable and resilient cities requires the consideration and implementation of accessibility principles. When planning for accessibility, it is important to take into account the necessities of multiple scales of the urban environment as well as the citizens’ needs.
