Land Use and Transport

Land use and transport refer to how land is utilized for various purposes, such as residential, commercial, and industrial development, and how transportation systems, like roads and public transit, connect these areas. In transportation economics, understanding this relationship helps assess how land development influences travel demand, costs, and accessibility. Efficient integration of land use and transport can lead to reduced traffic congestion, better public transit options, and increased economic activity, ultimately creating more sustainable and livable communities. Analyzing these interactions is essential for effective urban planning and transport policy.
