Urban policies towards compact cities and modal shift are considered as important mitigation measures for global warming.
They are estimated to have a substantial impact on CO2 emission reduction from urban activities, which is derived by the
change of behavior of urban entities like households and firms. This means the urban mitigation policies would affect on the
level of happiness or quality of life of dwellers as well. The impact of urban policies, therefore, should be assessed regarding
both CO2 emission and sustainability.
This study presents the applicability of a land use-transport model for the urban mitigation policy assessment. First, we
develop a model in which the behavior of urban entities like location choice/ daily trips of households and firms are explicitly
formulated. Second, this model is applied to two urban policies, road pricing and land use control, to assess the long term
impact on CO2 emission and sustainability. As a result, the developed model is verified, under assumed conditions, to have
capacity for the assessment of urban policies regarding CO2 emission and sustainability consistently.
