Description

The objective of this literature review is to discuss how environmental justice (EJ) analyses have been viewed and conducted by both practitioners and academics. By highlighting methods that have been applied in the context of transportation planning, we can justify the utility of some EJ analysis tools as well as highlight particular needs where there are dearths of examples. By reviewing both professional and academic literature we can combine case studies, empirical research, along with analytic methods. We will also balance the selected professional and academic literature so that practical as well as sophisticated tools are represented.
