Abstract
Community severance (CS) occurs where road traffic (speed or volume) inhibits access to goods, services or people. CS greatly reduces the number of social contacts, thus has been assumed to lead to higher morbidity and mortality, especially among the elderly. We reviewed the literature to assess the extent of evidence on its effects on health.
