abstract="The study focuses on the independent travel opportunities of children in Canberra, a low-density Australian city. The use of a methodology developed in previous research on children's independent mobility in England and Germany facilitated comparisons with these countries. Differences in levels of this mobility were observed between schools in Canberra, England and Germany. Some explanations for these differences are offered. The discussion includes an explanation of how levels of children's independent mobility are affected by the dominance of the motor vehicle in the development of a low-density city.<p />",
