Transport and Social Exclusion

Abstract

A summary of recent developments in transport and social policy that are under the social exclusion policy agenda in England are presented in this chapter. These have emerged largely in response to increasing government recognition of the issues that were raised in the preceding chapters of the book and also the growing acceptance of both social and transport policy makers within the central government that a “social welfare approach” to transport decision making and policy delivery is needed in the United Kingdom (UK). Similar policy strategies are also being developed in Wales and Scotland under their devolved Parliaments, but consideration of these are not included in this chapter because of the author’s inexperience and familiarity with the subject outside of England.
