All rights reserved Printed in Great Britain 0264-2751/01 $ - see front matter www.elsevier.com/locate/cities Contemporary lifestyles and the implications for sustainable development policy: Lessons from the UK’s Most Car Dependent City, Belfast J Cooper, T Ryley* and A Smyth Transport Research Institute, Napier University, 66 Spylaw Road, Edinburgh, EH10 5BR, UK The rise in demand for car travel is fuelled more by the increased spatial separation of homes and workplaces, shops and schools than by any rise in trip making. Belfast is one of the most car dependent cities in the United Kingdom. A major household survey was intended to inform an understanding of the likely behavioural response to sustainable development policy initiat- ives. The survey was one of a series of linked tools within a wider EPSRC Sustainable Cities Project research project. Insights into consumer responses to the various policy measures con- sidered in the overall project were drawn in part from the stated preference experiments included in the household survey. Initiatives included improved domestic energy efficiency, increased densification of housing, improved public transport and the introduction of traffic restraint measures such as road user charges. There were signs of some willingness to accept moderately higher densities on the basis that residents would be compensated by a lower than otherwise purchase price. The typical effect of introducing road pricing say at £1.00 per day equated to a reduction in property values of some 2.5% while the absence of any apparent statistical significance generated by the public transport variable reflects its current lack of credibility as an alternative to the car.

The maps is this document are based upon Crown Copyright and are reproduced with the permission of Land and Property Services under delegated authority from the Controller of Her Majesty’s Stationery Office, © Crown copyright and database rights 2008 7993 - Divided by Health D3 10/10/08 14:17 Page 3 Preface Health is a measure of personal quality of life, but it is also a yardstick of a healthy community, city or society. Our health and wellbeing is shaped above all by our social environment, and differences in factors such as income, employment and educational attainment can therefore result in inequitable health outcomes. As such, it is the responsibility of policy makers to create conditions that both enable health improvement for all our citizens, and reduce inequalities in health. This Profile makes a valuable contribution to the policy process by providing a single resource that collates available information on health and wellbeing in the Belfast Health and Social Care Trust area. It focuses on the social determinants of health and also places figures in a wider geographical context of the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland and Europe. The Profile highlights important positive change over the last decade, including improvements in life expectancy, reduced unemployment, improving quality of housing and increases in the proportion of school leavers achieving at least five GCSEs at grades A*-C.
