Dear All, The University of Brighton will be hosting the UK - Ireland Planning Research Conference on 11th to 13th April 2012. http://www.brighton.ac.uk/prc2012/index.htm The overall conference theme addresses how economic development, issues of quality of life and strengthened society can be reconciled. As in previous years, there will be plenary and track sessions dedicated to mobility. Therefore, submission of abstracts are welcome that address the role of transport and mobility planning in stimulating economic growth, improving quality of life and supporting society. Papers that evaluate schemes or pilot studies designed to this effect are welcome, as are papers that consider the links between transport/mobility and these three issues from a more theoretical/modelling basis. A selection of papers from this conference will be published in forthcoming special issues of the Journal of Urban Regeneration and Renewal and the Journal of Town and City Management. The deadline for submission of abstracts is 15th February 2012. For questions regarding the conference, please contact [log in to unmask] Kind Regards, Lee Woods Lecturer in Transport, School of Civil Engineering and Surveying, Portsmouth University, Portland Building, Portland Road, Portsmouth, Hants.
