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. ID - discovery10105814 ER -
