The valuation of community severance caused by busy roads
This article reports a presentation discussing a project carried out at University College London (UCL), which was a collaboration between the Department of Public Health, the Bartlett School of Planning, and the Centre for Transport Studies. The work was funded by the EPSRC, ESRC, and AHRC, with a follow-up study funded by the EU CREATE project (Congestion Reduction in Europe). The main objectives of the work were: 1) to increase understanding of residents’ perceptions and priorities for addressing Community Severance on busy main roads; 2) to develop questionnaire tools to measure CS at the individual level; 3) to measure local access and walkability; 4) to analyse the impact of CS on wellbeing and other social outcomes; 5) to develop a CS index for busy roads; and 6) to obtain estimates of the values to residents and the local economy of reducing community severance. A key motivator for the work was to attempt to link the severance index to monetary values.
