abstract="Since the early 1970s, urban development in Western countries has been characterised by the low density and the remoteness of new residential areas, as well as by the increasing use of the automobile. This tendency, which may be called the &quot;car-bungalow-suburb' combination, also marks some of the urban growth in developing countries. The tendency has a significant impact on energy consumption levels and the cost of infrastructure needed to supply services to residents. Better land planning and traffic lanes reserved for buses would improve the situation considerably. In the North, the model of the suburban, single-family home represents an enormous squandering of resources. Transferred to the countries of the South, this model seems to be a form of economic suicide. -English summary<p /><p>Language: fr</p>",
