TY - JOUR PY - 2009// TI - The usefulness of social exclusion to inform social policy in transport JO - Transport policy A1 - Stanley, Janet A1 - Vella-Brodrick, Dianne SP - 90 EP - 96 VL - 16 IS - 3 N2 - This article examines a variety of conceptualisations and measurement approaches to social exclusion and the usefulness of these to understanding social policy as it relates to transport. It argues that there is a need to broaden the criteria to encompass all aspects of well-being, the broad outcome desired to optimise a person's mobility. Understanding of the importance of interpersonal interactions is not well covered under the ambit of social exclusion, thus the need for measures around social capital and community. Additionally, there is a need to include measures of psychological factors, to comprehensively understand transport outcomes for people.
