Efficience économique des formes urbaines: compacité avec des tours comparée à l'étalement urbain

Jean Bouinot

Géographie, économie, société, 2006, vol. 8, issue 4, 481-487

Abstract: Labour productivity increases with town size ; this relation is improved with the size of real labour market (i.e. workers dewlling minus y minutes from offerd jobs). Hence two solutions : ? Develop the speed of collective transports; ? Build towers ; but the first solution facilitiates urban sprawl ; the second costs more than urbanization with undividual houses.

Keywords: urban form; compactness; urban sprawl (search for similar items in EconPapers)
