Urban Mobility Transitions: Governing through Experimentation in Bristol and New York City
PhD Thesis by Emilia Smeds, University College London. This doctoral research examines how mobility in cities is governed through experiments, commonly understood as pilot projects, and whether experiments hold potential for transformative change in urban mobility systems, including transitions away from automobility. The research draws on a synthesis of sustainability transitions, transport studies and urban studies literature, and traces the outcomes of 108 experiments undertaken over two decades in two cities: Bristol (UK) and New York City (USA) between 1996/7 and 2016.
From a post-war to a post-car neighborhood. Pendrecht, neighborhood in Rotterdam
Masters Thesis by Fabiola Anahí Mogrovejo León exploring the concept of accessibility by proximity as a structural and functional factor for redesigning one of the so-called ‘second-most problematic neighborhoods of The Netherlands, Pendrecht.
