Abstract

A study is reported of equity concepts held by local transport policymakers (planners and politicians) in sixteen local authorities in England. The study demonstrates that at this level the concepts most readily identified are those of formal equality and basic need. Differences between politicians and professionals and between two main political parties are found to be small. The results are compared with those of a similar study at national level.
