復興まちづくりと地域公共交通

～居住分布の変化と地域公共交通の運行効率～

抄録

Land use in towns after the Great East Japan Earthquake varies depending on topography and policy. In Yamamoto-cho, large-scale urban developments have been created to produce a more compact town. As a result, the operational efficiency of local public transportation has partially improved. However, the effect is limited because wide-area operation is still required. In Minamisanriku-cho, development of many small-scale highland housing estates has lowered the operational efficiency of local public transportation. Planning immediately after a disaster has always made the development of residential areas a top priority. Consideration of local public transportation should also factor into future reconstruction plans.
