There is currently much interest in the role that transport plays
in promoting, or alleviating 'social exclusion'. Exclusionary
processes are, of course, multi-dimensional and a mixture of
physical barriers, financial constraints, time budgets, access
difficulties and psychological aspects such as fear, all combine in
various ways to prevent the use of transport facilities. In order
to be able to understand more accurately the relationship between
transport and social exclusion, a fuller understanding is required.
Data gathered from households to examine the problems experienced
by women, the elderly, and disabled, and public transport users in
accessing key facilities and influences on lifestyle. Interviews of
policymakers and public transport providers provides insights into
the problems of providing public transport to meet social inclusion
objectives. This book illustrates the nature of these exclusionary
processes and indicates how policy and practice could be developed
to counter these effects.
