‘“New uses, new move – Land use & Mobility”’

Workplaces / Housing and habitats / Smart Cities / The individual car / Low-impact transport / Products and goods / Land use and mobility infrastructure

What practices and lifestyles of tomorrow (habitats, work, consumption and hence property and spatial planning) will influence or be influenced by changes in mobility?
What technological advances in personal mobility, goods transportation and connectivity are already influencing or will influence practices? Ultimately, what are the potential impacts on our urban regions?
In short, what processes of change in behaviour and practices will disrupt our expectations regarding travel and connectivity and our ways of living, working, moving around and doing business, and vice versa?
