First published in 1976, Industrial Location and Planning in the
United Kingdom investigates in detail the nature of the changes
taking place in the location of manufacturing industry since the
1950s and the reasons for them, including the effects of government
regional policy and of factors such as market accessibility, labour
availability and cost, transport facilities and personal
residential preferences by industrialists and workers. The book
brings together a wide range of published and unpublished material
in discussing and evaluating explanations for regional and local
manufacturing growth or decline. Government regional policy and
planning is singled out for special attention, in terms of the
impact of Development Area grants, of local planning controls, and
of the town programmes. Manufacturing movement to new locations and
the implications of government regional policies for industrial
efficiency are examined in detail, together with the reasons for
locational change in key but controversial industries such as
steel, motor vehicles and electronics. This book will be of
interest to students of urban planning, manufacturing, and
development as well as city planners.
