ABSTRACT
This final chapter summarizes the main findings, wider planning implications and new research questions that have arisen from the research reported in this book. The research revealed considerable room for the improvement of accessibility instruments; in particular, with regards to lacking information and low transparency, and the need to provide real-time interaction capabilities and higher communicative value (by better visualization and spatialisation). Continuous engagement between instrument developers and planning practitioners has shown essential to achieve this. However, and regardless of these efforts, the use of accessibility instruments in practice appears fundamentally constrained by the absence of institutionalization of accessibility planning.
