This paper seeks to provide a theoretical basis for a distributive approach to transport. Using the theory developed by Michael Walzer in his ‘Spheres of Justice’ (<CitationRef CitationID="CR102">1983</CitationRef>), I argue that the transport good, defined as accessibility, should be distributed in a so-called separate sphere, i.e....</citationref>

In this paper we explain differences in the development of value between a designated type of urban areas: industrial sites. The aim of this paper is twofold. First, industrial sites in the Netherland are prone to rapid decline (Buitelaar & van der Krabben, 2011) and although regeneration...

It has been frequently noted that in a non-regulated environment the development of public transport service is self-adjusting: Faced with decreasing demand, operators will tend to reduce service to cut costs, resulting in a decrease in the level-of-service, which then triggers a further drop in...

Hedonic price modelling is a widely used technique to explain the value of different types of individual property. Following the notion that areas within the city can suffer from devaluation, the question arises what factors influence the value of urban areas. In this paper, we use hedonic price...

Accessibility is a concept central to integrated transport and land use planning. The goal of improving accessibility for all modes, for all people, has made its way into mainstream transport policy and planning in communities worldwide. This unique and fascinating book introduces new...

Transportation improvements inevitably lead to an uneven distribution of user benefits, in space and by network type (private and public transport). This paper makes a moral argument for what would be a fair distribution of these benefits. The argument follows Walzer’s “Spheres of Justice”...
