Transport Equity Concepts

Ideas about who is left without access to transport and how streets can be shared fairly. An entry belongs here when the cited article calls the concept a transport divide, transit desert or street design policy for all users. It excludes aviation and rail concepts. Entries are placed by what their own cited article says, so each one sits in the narrowest group its source supports, and the group page lists it beside the other members.
