Professor Wenban-Smith: Special Lecture @ UCE on 8 October

Lunar Society Vice Chairman, Professor Alan Wenban-Smith is giving a special Lecture on Monday 8 October 2007. Entitled Putting Transport in its Place: some paradoxes in transport policy , this Lecture is part of the celebrations of 50 years of planning education by UCE's School of Property, Construction and Planning.

In his Lecture, Alan will suggest we ought to pay more attention again to transport — not just for fear of gridlock, but because transport really does connect to today's other hot issues. Transport is in fact a key to the quality of the places we live in, connecting in deep-seated ways to issues as diverse as social cohesion, house prices and the economic vitality of cities.
