This paper uses simulation techniques to examine the transport implications of superstore location. In particular it argues that policies for superstore location advocated by central government in the United Kingdom would, if implemented, have had the effect of increasing the distances travelled for such shopping, have reduced access by public transport and on foot, and have increased the amount of travel through built up urban areas. The simulation outcomes are related to a brief case study of superstore locations in East Kent. © 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
