Abstract:
Sir James Pennethorne (1801-1871) was the architectural heir of John Nash, in whose office he received much of his early training. From 1839 until 1870 he worked almost exclusively for the government: devising and carrying out major street improvement schemes in central London; designing and laying out the first metropolitan parks intended primarily for the use of the poor; acting as architecural surveyor to the Crown Estate in London; advising successive governments on schemes for new public buildings in the capital; and designing some of the most important of those buildings himself.

This thesis investigates five traffic planner´s experiences of planning for pedestrians and cyclists in complex urban settings.

Firstly, the results show that the traffic planner´s experience that the car still is the norm in the traffic system, but that re-prioritization of space to make pedestrians and cyclist

There is an urgent need to migrate the vehicle industry from conventional combustion vehicles to electric vehicles due to pressing climate changes caused by the fossil fuel industry. The general public seem to have a prejudice against electric vehicles due to their limited range and the extra planning that may be required from the user. The market for electric vehicles is much more limited than for conventional vehicles, partially because it is a much younger industry. Buying an electric vehicle is also a bigger change than just buying a new car, one has to plan and manage the limited range in

This study addresses and evaluates the use of Environment-Behavior-Design (E-B-D) research in planned community practice in greater Pima County, using the specific plan approach.

The results suggest that very little E-B-D research use has occurred in specific plans, although respondents were supportive of E-B-D research. Recommendations are made for improving research applications and for appropriate subjects for E-B-D research on planned communities.
