@inproceedings { , title = {Public engagement and participation in sustainable transport issues.}, abstract = {Currently, emissions from transport represent a quarter of Scotland's total. While the Scottish Government has identified a number of transport policies, which would contribute to Scotland's ability to meet its targets, action to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions from transport has been limited, poorly integrated with other areas of policy, and focused on narrow programmes. Drawing on best practice from cities across the North Sea Region, this paper considers how public engagement can be utilised within the development of holistic low carbon urban development. Consideration of regions where strategies have been successful reveals a context where transport is considered as part of wider urban design and urban development, thus ensuring that the potential benefits are directly related to concerns of planning, housing and behavioural change. The paper includes information and conclusions from a case study in Aberdeen, Scotland.}, conference = {2012 Construction, building and real estate research conference of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS COBRA 2012)}, isbn = {9781842198407}, note = {COMPLETED -- Rec'd permission from COBRA/RICS 29/3/2017 LM -- Sent final email to RICS, if no reply next month upload. 6/3/2017 LM -- Chased DB for answer 6/2/2017 LM -- Chased again, reply from Danielle Blair to say passed onto Research 6/12/2016 LM -- Chased both 4/11/2016 LM -- -- Rec'd email from RICS with RICS - Query CRM:016563034 27/9/2016 -- Requested permission via RICS online form (reply in 2 days) and also care-north@umwelt.bremen.de 22/9/2016 LM -- Info via contact 21/9/2016 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Tait, Elizabeth}, publicationstatus = {Published}, publisher = {Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS)}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/10059/2274}, keyword = {Participation, Climate, Regional, Transport, Urban}, year = {2012}, author = {Laing, Richard and Tait, Elizabeth and Gray, David} editor = {Kashiwagi, Dean and Sullivan, Kenneth} }
