Together, globalisation and urbanisation are accelerating the densification of cities while disruptive technologies such as micro-mobility and ride-hailing are transforming urban mobility. Amidst this change, urban planning officials and practitioners typically remain constrained to the same urban footprint, left to grapple with earlier car-oriented development, and yet must accommodate a growing population and variety of travel modes operating within the same space. Further, they must operate alongside government officials whose re-election could depend upon appeasing suburban residents that are unable or unwilling to relocate along active transport corridors, near public transit nodes, or forgo the flexibility and comfort of private automobiles. As a result, private automobiles can become necessary for traversing urban forms already enlarged by parking, driveways, roads, highways, and flyovers. Likewise, alternatives such as public and active transport can become impractical and dangerous within urban forms that are fragmented by congestion or fast traffic. Given that urban mobility research typically focuses on keeping our pre-existing modal choices moving rather than the side-effects, daily commutes have remained unchanged for decades, and planners are better equipped to continually accommodate rather than influence our modal choices. This volume of Progress in Planning aims to strengthen the evidence base for influencing modal choice by developing a comparative framework of urban mobility, and by examining how parking policy has influenced modal choice within the three largest Australian cities: Brisbane, Sydney, and Melbourne. In addition, it provides reproducible methods for estimating parking supply using land use audits, parking demand using a population census, and geo-statistical modelling for determining whether and where parking policy can explain more sustainable modal choices. As such, this volume sets a research agenda for metropolitan-scale examination and coordination of transport and land use planning for sustainable rather than temporary urban mobility.

全球化和城市化正在加速城市的密集化，而微型交通和叫车等颠覆性技术正在改变城市交通。在这种变化中，城市规划官员和从业者通常仍受制于相同的城市足迹，不得不努力应对早期以汽车为导向的发展，但必须适应不断增长的人口和在同一空间内运行的各种出行方式。此外，他们必须与政府官员一起工作，他们的连任可能取决于安抚不能或不愿意的郊区居民沿活跃的交通走廊搬迁，靠近公共交通节点，或放弃私人汽车的灵活性和舒适性。因此，私人汽车可能成为穿越因停车场、车道、道路、高速公路和天桥而扩大的城市形态的必要条件。同样，在因拥堵或快速交通而支离破碎的城市形式中，公共交通和主动交通等替代方案可能变得不切实际和危险。鉴于城市交通研究通常侧重于保持我们现有的交通方式选择的移动而不是副作用，几十年来日常通勤一直保持不变，规划者更有能力不断适应而不是影响我们的交通方式选择。这本书的计划进展旨在通过开发城市交通的比较框架，并通过研究停车政策如何影响澳大利亚三个最大城市：布里斯班、悉尼和墨尔本的交通方式选择，加强影响交通方式选择的证据基础。此外，它还提供了可重复的方法，用于使用土地使用审计、使用人口普查的停车需求以及用于确定停车政策是否以及在何处可以解释更可持续的模式选择的地统计模型来估计停车供应。因此，本卷为大都市规模的交通和土地利用规划的检查和协调制定了研究议程，以实现可持续而非临时的城市流动。
