Sustainability
How can you travel sustainably?
Most Norwegians want to make sustainable choices, but struggle to take ambition into action.
To reduce the CO2 emissions from personal transport, public authorities in Norway have implemented a zero growth target that also impacts parking lots in new construction projects.
We are working to see how real estate developers can facilitate sustainable travel choices among their residents, without losing new customers.

How far are residents willing to walk to their own parking lot?
How can public zero growth targets be implemented in new construction projects, by making parking lots less available? What is the acceptable distance to a parking lot, before potential buyers decline a new housing project?
How can you use research from psychology to develop sustainable habits for reidents in urban housing projects?
Project time line
The project "Live Sustainbly" was initiated in 2024.
Developing a project description with partners.
Goal to contract financing and start pre-project phase.
Complete the preproject, including testing and developing mehodology to inspire residents to make sustainable everyday choices.
Yourvoice.no is working to develop new knowledge on whether distance from your own house to your parking lot impacts your means of transportation, and if distance affects the attractiveness of certified sustainable housing projects.
There is a lot of research on physical placement and the number of car parking places in public areas (Göransson og Andersson 2023), but not a lot of knowledge on physical placement of car parking lots at home.
Changing habits require a lot of work, and often takes a lot of time. Change is easier when you are a part of a "neighbourhood" where others share the ambition of making sustainable choices, and also act upon their ambitions. It is therefore interesting to look at bigger housing projects in urban areas with a environmental certification, and evaluate if real estate developers can succees in facilitating sustinable means of transportations as the preferred choice (Löfström og Fjellingsdal 2022).
