Abstract
Maintenance of local infrastructure is required to shift from quantitative expansion to qualitative one due to derived from the changes of our society such as stagnation or decreasing of the population and aging. In addition, it is getting more difficult to communicate with local community because of such factors, composition with other measures and expectation to collaborate with local community. On the other hand, it is getting more difficult to compile opinions from local community because of diversification of the sense of values and degradation of the sense of belonging of the community. It is discussed suggestions for consensus building under the situations above as a help. One suggestion is to interpret this process as the model consisting of four communication forms. Another is to imply it to meet a factor which deliberation is established. Afterwards, it is attempted to read and understand the process of communication towards consensus building by using examples in the book called “Recipes of community transport” as the monograph of the process for consensus building in local transport policy.
