Abstract

This paper presents a simulation model that analyses alternative strategies for limiting the suburbanization of employment. It applies microsimulation by representing every business individually. The model was implemented in the urban region of Dortmund in Germany. Zoning, transportation and tax-related policies are tested and compared to estimate their likely success in fostering a sustainable land use development. The analyses reveal that a regionally coordinated approach would be the most successful policy option for reducing the urban sprawl of employment. Benefits and drawback of using microsimulation for business modelling are discussed.
