Talk:Automotive city

The concept of the Automotive City is topical among planners concerned with the dependence of a number of cities in developed countries, such as Australia and North America, on the automobile as a means of mobilising human capital.

The subject has received a great deal of attention over the past 15 years or so, and the study of North American and Australian city development patterns have accentuated the need to study cycles of public policy creation and road infrastructure utilisation by varying modes of transportation.

I had considered attaching this article to an existing topic on Traffic Safety, Automobile History, or Road History, but as I studied the various sources which have described the idea, it became obvious that it was too self-contained to "tack on" to an existing article as a subsection.

I will be revising it over the coming months and dividing it up into sections, any advice or contributions would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Bacon

This section on one city is too detailed and specific for the page. It could perhaps be relegated to a case studies section on cities that have implemented policies in response to autodependent planning. Additional detail should be shifted to the specific page on the Perth metropolitan railway. Adondai (talk) 23:47, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

• Merge - Automobile city into Automotive city which is a longer article about the same thing (linked to two other language versions), with more views, watchers, references, links to it and nearly 10 years older.
