In Spring 2013, Future of London (FOL)began looking at transport planning in London, and at how it can adapt to changes in demographics and urban form, and influence sustainable travel choices. In partnership with Transport for London, FOL ran a three-part seminar series, London’s Transport Network: Adaptation and evolution, that examined adapting to changing demographics, challenging travel behaviours and shaping the road network. FoL has now released an anthology that builds on these seminars.
