  Proximity-centered planning has recently attracted increasing attention. The 15-min city (FMC) and related X-minute frameworks are promoted as strategies for advancing sustainable and equitable urban development. However, limited attention has been paid to how major critiques of the FMC are reflected in empirical studies that apply the framework to accessibility assessment. Rather than evaluating accessibility outcomes, this review examines how accessibility is operationalized and assessed in FMC-based research. To address this gap, this study conducts a systematic and critical review of 149 publications and develops a structured analytical framework across five domains: operationalization and methodological design, social equity and inclusion, implementation and feasibility, governance and participation, and service quality and scale. By organizing the literature around key challenges, the review identifies persistent blind spots in FMC-based accessibility research. The findings indicate that most studies rely on a 15-min threshold, employ quantitative methods, and prioritize residential and leisure amenities, while employment and education remain underexamined. Accessibility is predominantly measured through potential and objective approaches, with limited attention to realized and subjective dimensions. Socio-demographic diversity, multimodal transport integration, stakeholder participation, and service quality are also insufficiently addressed. These findings demonstrate that current applications capture only part of the multidimensional nature of accessibility embedded in the FMC framework. By assessing how recurring critiques are reflected in accessibility assessment practices, this review provides insights for developing more inclusive and context-sensitive accessibility frameworks. Future research should prioritize context-sensitive thresholds, adaptable service classifications, multimodal integration, and participatory approaches to strengthen FMC-based accessibility assessments across diverse contexts.

  An efficient public transport system providing good service to the public is a key element of sustainable development. The aim of this paper is to describe and explain the long-run development of public transport supply variables in Sweden. The analysis uses data on the supply of vehicle kilometres and fare levels, as well as on the development of the cost of providing services. This is seen in light of structural changes, with regression analysis being used to explain the development of the aforementioned variables and important policy changes. The analysis utilises yearly data from Swedish counties from 1986 to 2022, totalling 756 observations. The findings show a cost increase associated with the policy changes made in 1995 (related to Sweden becoming a member of the EU) and a cost decrease associated with changes made in 2012 (related to a new public transport act). The supply of vehicle kilometres has been positively affected by changes introduced in 1995. Fare levels were reduced due to changes introduced in 1989, when public transport authorities were given the opportunity to use competitive tendering. To our knowledge, this is the first longer comprehensive study to have considered more recent reforms and service changes in the Swedish public transport sector.

  Given the volume of greenhouse gas emissions that the transport sector in urban areas is producing, cities have an essential responsibility in the response to climate change. Public authorities on the local level have been given a central role in stimulating a shift from a car-centric transport system to a more sustainable mobility system. Within this setting, there is a clear emphasis on stakeholder collaboration and coordination between public and private actors and organisations. This is further strengthened by global agreements, such as the Paris Agreement and the UN sustainability goals, that clearly point in the direction of increased actor coordination. Governance is a concept that describes a shift in policy making, in which networks of actors take a greater role in decision-making processes. Both public and private actors and organisations play an essential part but may hold different interests and roles in policy making. Governance can take place both horizontally, between public and private actors, and vertically between various government levels. It explains policy making based on various actor roles and challenges that come with it. The aim of the chapter is to introduce the reader to the transport governance perspective and its link to public–private ownership and delivery. The focus will be on the transition to a sustainable urban transport system and models of governance related to this will be presented. As a complement to existing governance literature, the chapter will also draw on a discussion of market structure and market performance, inspired by the structure–conduct–performance perspective. The existing transport governance literature has had a primary focus on public authorities and their complexity when governing. Several studies have recognised that governing authorities have the power to set structures for the private sector actors in which they are to operate in. For example, public authorities may use hard regulation (for example, zero emission zones); economic instruments (for example, setting low emission criteria when purchasing public transport services) or softer incentives (for example, funding smart mobility pilots). A critique that can be raised to the governance literature is that it recognises that private actors have a role in such governing processes; however, it often treats the private sector (firms) as passive respondents and ignores its diversity, as well as how they may act on various markets and adjust to various initiatives. Governing authorities operate on multiple playing fields within an urban setting. For example, the freight sector holds a market structure with few regulatory boundaries and a strong competitive market with various firm structures. While the public transport sector holds a tender-based structure where few international firms compete for contracts. When public authorities are introducing sustainability targets and regulations within a city, firms may react to such regulations differently, some may adjust their operation to meet future needs, while others may seek other markets. To understand the challenges sustainable urban transport stands in front, the governance perspective needs to further address the link between public and private ownership and how these interactions respond to various policy changes in various markets within a city. We believe that this chapter will bring robustness to the understanding of transport governance and further develop the discussion on how this perspective can linked to policy changes related to sustainability.

  Contentious transport measures (CTM) are defined in this paper as those which reduce the amount of road space available for, or the cost of using, the private car. These measures have been shown to be necessary if a transition to a more sustainable transport system is to take place. Although they are the key decision makers as to whether such measures should be implemented at city level, there is a dearth of research on local politicians’ views on mobility issues in general, and to CTM specifically. This paper addresses this gap by presenting and analysing interviews with local politicians in Sweden, Norway and Spain. It finds that local politicians can be categorised broadly into three groups: those who do not support CTM as they see them as being incompatible with their ideology; those who will support a gradual implementation of such measures; and those for whom there is an urgent need for CTM and that their task is to respond to their voters and lead society towards the transition by implementing CTM even if they are unpopular with some sectors of the electorate. These findings align with earlier work identifying some politicians as radical and some as incremental in their approach to policy change; and the self-definition of politicians as ‘trustees’, leading change as elected representatives, compared to those who see themselves more as ‘delegates’, representing the views of their voters.

  As urbanization accelerates, achieving sustainable and equitable accessibility has become a central objective in transport planning. This research investigates transportation equity through the lens of the 15-minute city concept, emphasizing proximity-based accessibility to social functions as a criterion. Despite the growing adoption of this concept, empirical analyses integrating both active mobility and public transport accessibility remain limited. Furthermore, previous studies have neglected the correlation between socioeconomic characteristics and neighborhood accessibility, an essential factor in understanding transport equity. This study uses Oslo as a case study to address these gaps by analyzing transport-related equity. A GIS-based spatial analysis was conducted to evaluate accessibility to social functions via active mobility, supplemented by an assessment of public transport station accessibility across Oslo’s neighborhoods. Additionally, regression analysis was employed to examine the correlation between socioeconomic characteristics and accessibility patterns. The findings indicate significant spatial inequities, with central neighborhoods tending to have higher accessibility levels than peripheral areas. Furthermore, the results suggest that socioeconomic disparities, including population density, gender ratio, and age distribution, are correlated with accessibility levels, highlighting the relevance of more inclusive urban mobility strategies. By integrating GIS-based accessibility assessment and regression analysis, this study advances methodological approaches to transport equity research. Unlike previous studies focusing on active mobility, this research incorporates active and public transport accessibility, enabling a comprehensive equity evaluation through vertical and distributional dimensions. The insights generated provide valuable guidance for urban planners and policymakers seeking to mitigate transport inequities and foster more sustainable and inclusive urban mobility systems.

  This paper examines one category of contentious transport measure: that which reallocates parking space from cars to other modes of transport. Such restrictive measures are regarded as essential within the broader mix of policies needed to create more climate-friendly cities. The study analyses three Norwegian cases: two involving the removal of curb-side parking to make way for cycle lanes on urban streets, and one involving the removal of parking to pedestrianise three central-city squares. Using a social-justice framework, the analysis reveals three key findings. Firstly, although all three cases involve the removal of parking, the extent and nature of public resistance varied depending on the overall parking policy in place, with this broader policy context helping to explain the different levels and forms of protest. Secondly, the paper highlights the value of a social mobility justice approach in analysing transport system changes, showing that protests stem not just from the distribution of benefits and burdens but also from local values and perceived public-space qualities. Thirdly, diluting a road-space reallocation scheme to reduce opposition – for example, by providing extensive replacement parking – can risk weakening its impact on promoting sustainable transport. This underscores the challenge of balancing opposition management with policy effectiveness.

  Workshop 3 concentrated its discussion on critical factors for strategic transport planning, implementation, and service provision in the post-pandemic era. The workshop report makes a strong case for social and environmental considerations to be included in transport and land use planning. Bottom-up and top-down processes must converge, and policies that put focus on equity in transport planning are needed. In this also lies a recognition of the benefits of transport services for all and, in turn, the importance of threshold services that are inclusive. In the discussion on service improvement and wider benefits, there is a need to recognise the value of transport and distribution of resources. This is linked to better use of existing resources and working with methods that capture the value of transport improvements. Drawing on the discussion on service improvement, it is also recognised that there is a need to further develop objective decision-making tools that assess the outcomes of planned processes. This includes taking into account a wider social perspective in existing methods and further develop the existing tools traditionally used in transport planning.

  Norske kommuner skal ha forskrifter med kriterier for tildeling av langtids sykehjemsplass. Det kan tenkes at lokal autonomi og variasjon mellom kommunene kan gjenspeiles i forskriftene. Kunnskap om innholdet i forskriftene er derfor et viktig bidrag i diskusjonen om likhet og rettferdighet i tildeling av helse- og omsorgstjenester. Vi gjorde en innholdsanalyse av forskriftene med et mixed methods-design. Standardisering og variasjon ble undersøkt gjennom en plagiatanalyse av teksten i forskriftene. Vi brukte det metateoretiske perspektivet institusjonelle logikker og teorier om handlingsrom til å undersøke innholdet i logikkene. Det er noe standardisering, men i hovedsak variasjon i forskriftene innad i fylkene og nasjonalt. Vi identifiserte en medisinsk/faglig logikk (80 prosent av kommunene), en New Public Management-logikk (to tredjedeler av kommunene) og en hjemstedslogikk (en tredjedel av kommunene). Det er også variasjoner innad i logikkene, for eksempel i beskrivelser av behandling av ektefelle. Svært detaljerte forskrifter begrenser tjenesteutøvernes handlingsrom i tildeling av langtids sykehjemsplass, og variasjonen kan påvirke likhet og rettferdighet i praksis. Stor innholdsmessig variasjon i forskriftene og dominans av ulike institusjonelle logikker kan utfordre hvordan nasjonale prioriteringskriterier blir brukt.

  Purpose: As part of a national plan to govern professional and organizational development in Norwegian specialist healthcare, the country’s hospital clinics are tasked with constructing development plans. Using the development plan as a case, the paper analyzes how managers navigate and legitimize the planning process among central actors and deals with the contingency of decisions in such strategy work. Design/methodology/approach: This study applies a qualitative research design using a case study method. The material consists of public documents, observations and single interviews, covering the process of constructing a development plan at the clinical level. Findings: The findings suggest that the development plan was shaped through a multilevel translation process consisting of different contending rationalities. At the clinical level, the management had difficulties in legitimizing the process. The underlying tension between top-down and bottom-up steering challenged involvement and made it difficult to manage the contingency of decisions. Practical implications: The findings are relevant to public sector managers working on strategy documents and policymakers identifying challenges that might hinder the fulfillment of political intentions. Originality/value: This paper draws on a case from Norway; however, the findings are of general interest. The study contributes to the academic discussion on how to consider both the health authorities’ perspective and the organizational perspective to understand the manager’s role in handling the contingency of decisions and managing paradoxes in the decision-making process.

  The transport sector is currently undergoing rapid development, which is to a large extent driven by innovation and technological changes initiated by various market actors. At the same time, public transport operations are largely framed by extensive procurement processes and a mature market where a few large companies compete for market share. In Europe, there is tension between rapid innovative development in the sector, on one hand, and stability given by regulation practices shaping procurement processes, on the other. This paper presents results from a study in which opportunities for innovation in procurement processes were examined. The findings are based on public transport authorities' and transport companies’ experiences from tendering bus transport in the three largest cities in Sweden. By using a theoretical perspective of innovation and institutional logics, the paper explains the restrictive role innovation has in procurement processes and discusses the conflicting views transport authorities and transport companies put forward. The paper is of general value since it raises questions related to the complexity of existing tendering regimes and the possibilities of facilitating innovation.

  A general global wave of public participation is occurring. Students and researchers as well as civil servants, policy-makers, and NGO representatives are encouraged to study, propose, and engage in public participation. New innovative forms of participation are suggested, and experiments in participation are ongoing locally and nationally. Within the transport sector, most studies of participation focus on road infrastructure and other land use changes. However, for other areas within transport, studies are limited and fragmented. Based on this, we see a need for a volume on public participation in transport, aimed at practitioners, students, and researchers, in what are unarguably times of change. The overall aim of the volume is to provide examples of different forms of public participation in transport, which can work as a setting for further analyses and discussions of public participation in transport. Drawing on different cases, eight empirical chapters are presented covering three main themes: grass-roots participation initiatives, participation in unconventional areas, and public participation that throws up unexpected results. In this introductory chapter, we set the scene for later discussions and analyses of public participation in transport. This chapter also provides an overview of the structure and content of the volume. Keywords: public participation, participatory planning, exclusion, change, transprt infrastructure

  Public participation is sometimes suggested as a way to establish legitimacy for contentious policies needed to realise a transformation in the transport sector to meet sustainability and climate goals. In this chapter, we first aim to summarise and draw conclusions from each part of the book, not least in relation to the transformative potential of public participation in the sector. The chapter also suggests recommendations for further research in the field. Important topics discussed are the diversity of public participation in transport; limits to participation; the specifics of participation in the field of transport; and the issue of consensus and dissensus. As regards transformation of the sector, public participation is considered a prerequisite, but the book also includes several cases where public participation does not seem to possess a transformational potential. We suggest representative, deliberative forms of participation as a possible solution to overcome dilemmas of representativeness, (lack of) knowledge, and the participation burden. We conclude that public participation is not easy, it has to be prepared and designed carefully to avoid unexpected consequences, and there is currently a need for more experiments and pilot projects on public participation in the field of transport.

  The governance of public transport is experiencing growing interest as a field of research. Collaboration, contracts, ownership are among the concepts applied in the literature. Outside the specific field of public transport, the term meta-governance and meta-governors - referring to actors and activities that aim to govern and guide a network - has gained increased attention. The point of departure for this article is to study if and to what extent the concept of meta-governance can contribute additional insight to the study of public transport governance, if signs of meta-governance in public transport can be observed in two cases included in the study, and finally, what the nature is of the networks within which it takes place. The cases are the Copenhagen Region, Denmark, and the West Midlands Region, England. In both cases there are signs of meta-governance. It is not clear whether it has increased in scale or level of activity over recent years, but it is likely to increase in the future. The core meta-governor identified in both cases is the passenger transport authority, although in the Danish case there are more actors of almost similar significance and governing capability. We conclude that the meta-governance concept adds to other concepts used in analyses of public transport governance by including more instruments of governance, bringing to the fore the need of a core, nodal actor, and by stressing furthermore the autonomy but also interdependence of other actors in the network.

  This chapter aims to describe the development of governance in transport policy studies and show central aspects that have emerged within this field. The paper draws from studies in transport as well as general policy theories on governance. “The governance turn” in transport policy has been driven by both privatization reforms as well as reforms concerned with how to deal with climate change and promote a more sustainable transport system. These reforms have created a need for enhanced coordination among transport actors and new governance structures. The transport policy literature covering aspects of governance is found in multiple transport settings and there is a heterogenic, and sometimes conflicting, perspective on what governance might be. This paper proposes two main types of governance modes, which have been drawn from the various literatures on governance in transport policy: (1) policy-situated governance and (2) tender-based governance. With a base in these two modes, the paper discusses central features of governance in transport policy. The paper ends with a short note on a few future challenges related to transport policy and governance.

  Vehicle producers, universities, and technology companies, among others, are today involved in the development of autonomous vehicles (AVs). Ongoing in several countries are experimental activities in actual traffic situations. The legal conditions for autonomous vehicles, however, vary by country. A number of countries have introduced, or are considering introducing, rules for such activities. Some countries see autonomous vehicles as prohibited unless otherwise stated in the regulations, while other countries take exactly the opposite view, i.e., anything not explicitly prohibited is allowed. This paper introduces a regulatory governance perspective on autonomous vehicles. It describes how new regulatory standards are being shaped for emerging technologies in the transport sector using the case of autonomous vehicles in Sweden and Norway. The findings show how regulations are shaped by external pressures and that international conventions are influencing regulatory design. It also concludes that the final regulations hold some degree of flexibility but also that specific restrictions may be hindering advanced experiments. By introducing a theoretical perspective on regulatory governance of AVs, the paper contributes to a further understanding of how to analyse the shape of new regulation in the transport sector generally.

  To strengthen public participation in planning and to aid the public in understanding the proposed plans, planners use different types of illustrations to show the outcome of a project. Effective presentation of the projects’ impacts on the public has become increasingly essential in planning and designing transport systems. However, a central premise for conscious decision-making is that the information of the project must be realistically presented so that the plans are accurate in relation to the estimated effects. Drawing from theories on visualisation in plans and science and technology studies (STS), the paper aims to discuss and raise awareness of visual representation in urban transport planning. Using data from large road infrastructure projects in Norway, visual illustrations found in planning documents are analysed in relation to written texts on traffic effects and the overall project goal. By focusing on the visual illustrations, it is shown that artefacts related to the green environment and transport modes of cycles, buses and walking are overrepresented in the documents. The visualisation support the idea of a sustainable transport system and a sustainable mobility planning approach. Most of the projects are road enlargement projects; however, there is a lack of visualisation of car flows, or the flows are very low. Cars are toned down (or even absent) compared with the estimated effects. The documents also show clear patterns of standardisation of artefacts. Nevertheless, there is a heterogeneity in the visual illustrations when combining different documents. The paper introduces the concept ‘add-on flexibility’ to illustrate this type of contextualisation. It contributes to a new critical perspective on visualisation and its representation in urban transport planning.

  Poor logistics efficiency, due to low load factors caused by high demand fragmentation, will have relevant negative consequences for cities in terms of pollution, congestion and overall city liveability. Policy-makers should equip themselves with appropriate tools to perform reliable, comprehensive and timely analyses of urban logistics scenarios, also considering upcoming (i) technological changes, (ii) business model evolutions and (iii) spatial-temporal changes these innovations will produce. This paper discusses the Digital Twin (DT) concept, illustrating the role it might play and clarifying how to properly conceive it with respect to urban freight transport policy-making and planning. The main message is that without a sound theory and knowledge with respect to the relationships linking contextual reality and choice/behaviour, it is not possible to make sense of what happens in the real world. Therefore, the joint use of behavioural and simulation models should characterise a DT within a Living Lab approach so to stimulate effective, well-informed and participated planning processes, but also to forecast both behaviour and reactions to structural changes and policy measures implementations.

  International organisations, such as the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and the European Union (EU), are seeking to implement a cohesive Regulatory Impact Assessment (RIA) system in order to achieve better regulation and increased unity and transparency. Central to these evaluations is the use of cost-benefit analysis (CBA) and related tools. A comprehensive analysis of the use of impact assessment in the EU shows that many assessments lack important economic components. This paper draws on an extensive document study of the Swedish policy making process related to the EU Directive 2009/28/EC on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources. The aim of the paper is to examine how CBA is presented, negotiated and accounted for by central actors within a policy setting influenced by negotiation and policy coordination. The paper departs from a theoretical perspective on policy coordination and shows how this factor must be considered when explaining the low use of CBA. It concludes that the Swedish policy tradition, wherein the national government relies on consensus-based coordination between agencies, might counteract a more explicit assessment of different policy options. The paper also proposes a model that can be used for further studies on CBA and policy coordination.

  Government reforms such as contracting-out continue to influence public service provision within infrastructure sectors. Contracting-out involves a detachment of the operators from political decision-making and the creation of intermediary procurement agencies. These reforms therefore tend to require an adaptation of how accountability is implemented. Previously, elected officials delegated their democratic authority (vested in them through public votes) to the public administration and thus more or less controlled service delivery. We address how accountability has been adapted in the context of contracting-out and the challenges that have emerged. We are primarily interested in assessing the ability of the political body to maintain control and the relationship between private service providers, citizens and customers. Using a multiple case study design, we select cases from the public transport sectors at the regional level in Sweden, Norway and Switzerland that represent different contracting-out models. We find that with increasing degrees of autonomy from the state (the two Nordic cases) there are both more adaptations to accountability and also more challenges emerge than the model with direct political control (the Swiss case). The central challenges arise between political- administrative and agency accountability with the involvement of a procurement agency. This has led to reforms to re-integrate the intermediary procurement agencies back into the country administration.

  The European Union (EU), as well as many national governments, has adopted directives intended to reduce the environmental impact of transport. For example, the EU’s clean fuel strategy requires Member States to develop national policy frameworks for the market development of alternative fuels and their infrastructure. Given these directives, policy solutions must be formulated and proposed by Member States. This paper focuses on the policy adaptation phase of a policy process, specifically on administrators’ knowledge-making when constructing policy proposals. The paper combines policy theory with planning theory and provides a theoretical framework for studying policy adaptation, specifically, administrators’ construction of knowledge in such processes. The empirical study is based on two cases, both situated in the Swedish context. It concludes that administrators use several sources of knowledge: process knowledge, project knowledge, and context knowledge. New policy solutions are constructed by reusing data from existing reports and policy proposals. A specific focus has been on the use of economic analysis as an instrument for evaluating solutions. The paper shows that, in the policy adaptation phase, no new analyses are conducted and that decoupling strategies are used when dealing with economic analysis.

  It is a policy objective in Sweden that all citizens should have access to the transport system. The public sector is required to provide special transport services (STS) for those who are unable to use regular public transport or private car. Between 1999 and 2014, the yearly cost per STS trip increased by 66%. This is problematic, considering the fact that the population is growing older and an increased demand for STS may be expected in the future. It is therefore important to understand the cost structure of STS operations. Although STS has been organised in various ways in Sweden, the trend is to transfer responsibility from the municipal level to the regional level. This paper examines the cost structure of STS in Sweden to determine whether the transfer of responsibility has had an impact on costs. It is concluded that transferring the procurement of STS from the local to the regional level decreases marginal cost but increases fixed cost, thus lowering costs for municipalities with high levels of production and increasing costs for municipalities with low production levels. Transferring the administration of STS permits is found to have the opposite effect: it lowers fixed costs but increases marginal costs.

  Using the fire and rescue service (FRS) sector in Sweden as a case, this paper examines actors who engage in tasks that go beyond their traditional policy areas, and considers how their roles are shaped when interacting in new structures. This paper addresses two cross-sector collaborative practices: a) collaboration between the FRS and homecare nurses; and b) collaboration between the FRS and private security firms. The results show that discretion, occupational identity, expert-role expectations, and personal motivation are central to understanding how new frontline actor roles emerge and how they act within these collaborative arrangements. Keywords: Collaboration, Frontline actors, Local government, Identity, Occupational differences, Fire and rescue services.

  One of the official transport policy objectives in Sweden is that all citizens should have access to the transport system. The public sector is therefore required by law to provide special transport services (STS) for those who are unable to use public transport or private car. STS is often provided through public procurement of taxi services. As a response to new legislation in 2000, there have been developments in the public transport sector, making buses, trains and other parts of the system more accessible to people with disabilities. These developments have also been driven by other objectives, such as reducing costs in STS by transferring passengers from STS to regular public transport. However, so far, there is little evidence of the effects of public transport access on STS usage. The purpose of this paper is to study the effects of public transport system design on the demand for STS permits and usage. The main focus is on how different aspects of the general public transport system (e.g. price and supply levels) affect the demand for STS permits and STS usage per permit. In addition, the analysis will control for socioeconomic and geographical variables. It is concluded that the price and supply level of public transport do affect STS travel. Public transport price affects the demand for permits as well as the demand for trips from permit holders. Public transport service level only has an effect on the demand for permits. Keywords: special transport services, public transport, policy, price, service, accessibility, local government, modal shift, mobility

  This article addresses the question of how planners’ use and non-use of expert knowledge affect the content and goal achievement potential of plans, and discusses how changes in planners’ and researchers’ practices can contribute to improving goal achievement potential. These are questions that have been given surprisingly little attention in planning research. Although interesting discussions have emerged over recent years, few empirical studies have been presented. This article presents theory-based empirical research on these issues based on analyses of strategic land-use and transport planning processes in three Scandinavian cities where an aim is to limit or reduce traffic volumes and greenhouse gas emissions of transport. This is a highly relevant issue when analysing the effects of planners’ use and non-use of expert knowledge. Goal achievement potential refers to whether plans (if implemented) contribute to achieving defined objectives, which in this paper mainly regards curbing or reducing urban traffic volumes. The expert knowledge in question concerns how land-use and transport systems development influence traffic volumes in urban regions. The article concludes that whether planners use the expert knowledge in question or not, and how they use it, do affect the goal achievement potential of the plans they produce. This knowledge is the main basis for many planners’ knowing and acting. Planners use it to understand, explain and argue for how and why coordination is necessary, and for selecting traffic-reducing measures. All examined plans also include strategies and measures that reduce their goal achievement potential, and non-use of the expert knowledge is an important part of the explanation as to how and why this is the case. When competing objectives seem to call for traffic-increasing measures, planners tend not to take account of expert knowledge in explaining that these measures reduce the goal achievement potential of plans, and they do not turn to it for finding innovative ways of solving their planning problems. Instead, they rely on their embedded professional knowledge, which is sometimes outdated or misleading. In other cases, planners disregard the knowledge because it challenges planning agendas or compelling ideas, or they exercise self-censorship when finding that it conflicts with political agendas. Considerable effort is required in ensuring higher goal achievement potential in future plans. Planners need to be more critical of their own tacit knowledge, and turn more actively to research-based knowledge. Researchers need to produce the knowledge planners need in ways that are useful and usable for them.

  Plug-in electric vehicles have the potential to contribute to a more energy-efficient and a less fossil dependent road transport system. Swedish local authorities are obligated through legislation to substitute fossil-fuelled vehicles and plug-in electric vehicles offer an alternative for achieving their climate goals. Previous studies assign certain individuals – the policy entrepreneurs – a central role when implementing new technologies in public authorities. By combining the theoretical model of policy entrepreneurs with the theory of outcome indicators, this paper demonstrates how the policy entrepreneur affects and accelerates the introduction of plug-in electric vehicles in local public authorities. The result shows that policy entrepreneurs undertake actions to inform and persuade the decision-makers and raise the issue on the political agenda. The policy entrepreneurs assess the travel demand, find appropriate applications and supervise the deployment process. The policy entrepreneurs inform and inspire vehicle users as a way to ensure acceptance and to increase usage. There are examples of policy entrepreneurs that have accomplished changes in policies governing vehicle use to favour the plug-in electric vehicles. Practical experiences legitimate the policy entrepreneurs when involving local society. The policy entrepreneurs consolidate the new technology within policy documents, amongst the users and in the surrounding society. Keywords: Technology procurement; Outcome indicators; Policy entrepreneur; Plug-in electric vehicles.

  Commercial vehicle fleets constitute a favourable entry for plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) into the road transport system. During an extensive demonstration project, with 500 PEVs operating in 100 public and private enterprises, 40 battery electric vehicle (BEV) users were invited to focus group discussions. The focus groups allowed the users to discuss their actual experiences of operating BEVs and thereby provide a greater understanding of the operating conditions experienced by BEV users in different organisations. Based on the discussions, this paper focus on operational barriers, rather than traditional technical or economical barriers. The findings complemented earlier data collected from the demonstration project and further explained the recorded driving and charging behaviour. The conditions to adopt the BEVs vary between the users, and this in turn can relate to organisational conditions. Given a favourable introduction, users adopt and accept the technology. The paper contributes with new findings regarding implementation of BEVs in commercial vehicle fleets and provides an in-depth understanding of the operational barriers that public or private enterprises face when introducing BEVs in their vehicle fleets.

  Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to illustrate how accountability is expressed in contractual arrangements found in network governance structures that provide public transport services and to raise discussion of how to understand contracting accountability in network governance contexts. Design/methodology/approach – The paper is rooted in two research traditions: contracting studies and studies of accountability in government/governance contexts. Content analysis is used in examining contracts from two cases. These contracts are of five types: contracts between public organizations, contracts within a public organization, contracts between public organizations and private firms, and contracts between political parties within a municipality and contracts within a network. Various contracting approaches are identified within these types. Findings – The paper concludes that the contracts' functions differ between the cases. The first case did not have an overall contract that defined the network, relying on different two-party contracts instead. In the other case, an incentive-based contract was used to link the organizations. From an accountability perspective, the latter contracting structure clarifies the roles and responsibilities of the actors and increases the possibility of accountability to citizens. Originality/value – The paper brings new insights to the field of contracting and accountability by focusing on the role of contracts in network governance structures, taking account of various accountability relationships. It also contributes new theoretical categories usable when analysing contracting accountability in a network context.

  The central concern of this paper is the relationship between research-driven “state-of-the-art” knowledge, and knowledge claims made in practice, in planning for sustainability. The paper approaches this topic from a critical realist perspective, which is used to provide criteria for positing “state-of-the-art” knowledge validity, and assessing the quality of situated knowledge claims in planning practice. In this way the paper contributes to debates about an ontological turn in planning knowledge. By reviewing key planning documents in three Scandinavian city regions, the paper shows that the knowledge claims about travel behavioral impacts of proposed land use and transport infrastructure presented in the documents are, to varying extents, in accordance with “state-of-the-art” academic knowledge on these topics. Some long-standing “planning myths” are encountered in the investigated planning documents. In one of the cities, residential and workplace location close to suburban public transport stops is highlighted as a traffic-reducing measure, rather than proximity to inner-city concentrations of jobs and other facilities, and density is discussed at a neighborhood scale rather than at a city scale. In all three cities, planning documents depict road capacity increases as having no traffic-generating effect. These latter claims are used in support of more decentralized land-use patterns and considerable road development. Since the likelihood of achieving sustainability goals relies heavily on whether the measures chosen are productive or counter-productive, knowledge obviously matters. A stronger focus on how well suited proposed strategies for spatial development are to produce their purported outcomes should be welcomed in planning research and practice.

  Using private contractors through procurement is common in most public sector areas. Despite the benefits of procurement, officials are sometimes tempted to circumvent procurement regulations. The aim of the article is to examine strategies used by local governmental decision makers to bypass procurement regulations, analyzing the rationality underlying their actions. Interviews, court documents, municipal documents, and articles describing the actions of Swedish municipal officials concerning special transport service (STS) procurements were collected and analyzed. In a case in which rural municipalities lost regular taxi services after STS procurement, we demonstrate how decisions were driven by pressure from the public and local interest groups, making municipal officials deviate from procurement regulations in striving to secure the existence of regular taxi services. One outcome was that local businesses were given preferential treatment, violating regulations and reducing economic efficiency.

  The provision of public transport should address not only users' but also non-users’ needs which span beyond traditional accessibility to cover affordability, reliability, sustainability, safety, health, and ultimately equity. Budget constraints often means that trade-offs among these aspects of a transport system are inevitable. While trade-offs are often made based on traditional cost benefit analysis, economists and researchers increasingly account for social and environmental impacts of public transport provision. Workshop 7b of the 18th International Conference on Competition and Ownership in Land Passenger Transport set out to address the factors that contribute to decision-making processes and the challenges of implementing new approaches. It included ten papers which report evidence about transport poverty, accessibility index, value of travel time saving for children, personal safety on public transport, social inclusion, community building, and service time extension for special events. The workshop discussed what factors should be considered in transport service designs to make transport systems more equitable and inclusive for users and non-users and what implications does transport service design and accessibility have for community building. Drawing on these discussions, the workshop developed a set of research and policy recommendations designed to cater diverse users and needs.
