Italian to English: mobility General field: Social Sciences
Source text - Italian Ne consegue che insediamenti strutturati e organizzati in modo diverso determineranno spostamenti diversi. Numerose sono le assunzioni e le credenze in proposito, tra cui ad esempio l’idea che insediamenti ad alta densità e con usi del suolo misti determinino variazioni nella domanda di mobilità, riducendo gli spostamenti in automobile ed aumentando gli spostamenti a piedi e in bicicletta. La ricca letteratura quantitativa sul tema attesta tuttavia l’infondatezza di questo tipo di assunzioni, rivelando la complessità del fenomeno. Considerazioni intuitive a riguardo si rivelano così tutt’altro che fondate, sollevando questioni e problematiche di ampia portata. L’idea della necessità di una maggiore relazione tra i trasporti e gli usi del suolo, ormai riconosciuta tanto in ambito accademico quanto nel senso comune, è infatti fondata su queste considerazioni.
Translation - English Therefore, different settlement features and structures will result in different travel patterns. Several assumption and beliefs arose around this issue, as, among the others, the idea that high density and mixed land use will result in the reduction of car travel, and in the increase of non-motorized travel. Still, the abundant quantitative literature on land use and transport interaction brings out the complexity of this phenomenon letting emerge the groundlessness of some of these popular assumptions. Intuitive considerations on the influence of settlement features on mobility styles reveal themselves all but grounded, bringing out important questions and problems. As a matter of fact, the idea of the need for a more strict relation and integration of land use and transport studies, policies and planning, that is widespread both in the scientific community and in common sense, is grounded on these considerations.
