  1. Analysis of the urban structure in England and Wales 1971-2001Basak Demires Ozkul

  2. Outline Research question Hypothesis Definition of city structure Functional urban regions Travel to work areas Exploration of Travel-to-work Areas Conclusion

  3. Research Question Where do people live and work in post-industrial England and how does this affect the structure of cities?

  4. Hypothesis The main hypothesis is that city structure is dependent on commuting patterns.

  5. Hypothesis The main hypothesis is that city structure is dependent on commuting patterns. Commuting patterns are a result of the spatial segregation of land use of jobs and housing.

  6. Hypothesis The main hypothesis is that city structure is dependent on commuting patterns. Commuting patterns are a result of the spatial segregation of land use of jobs and housing. Jobs and housing are segregated by occupational class.

  7. Hypothesis The main hypothesis is that city structure is dependent on commuting patterns. Commuting patterns are a result of the spatial segregation of land use of jobs and housing. Jobs and housing are segregated by occupational class. Occupational classes are dependent on labour demand in the economy.

  8. Hypothesis The main hypothesis is that city structure is dependent on commuting patterns. Commuting patterns are a result of the spatial segregation of land use of jobs and housing. Jobs and housing are segregated by occupational class. Occupational classes are dependent on labour demand in the economy.  Thus changes in labour demand in industrial and post-industrial England is reflected in the city structure.

  22. Reading and Blacburn Blackburn By the first half of the 18th century, textile manufacture had become Blackburn's main industry. From the mid-18th to the early 20th century, Blackburn evolved from a small market town to become "the weaving capital of the world", with its population increasing from less than 5,000 to over 130,000. Blackburn's textile sector fell into a terminal decline from the mid-20th century. Major employers in Blackburn include: BAE Systems (British defence and aerospace company ); Blackburn with Darwen Borough Council; and the East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust. • Reading • In the 19th century became known as the town of 3 Bs, bulbs, biscuits and breweries. • Suttons Seeds (bulbls) closed in 1976. Huntley and Palmers (biscuits) closed in 1977. Simmonds (brewery) moved to a new site on the edge of Reading in the 1970's. • The town hosts the headquarters of major British companies and the UK offices of major foreign multinationals, predominantly in the technology industry, including Symantec, Verizon Business, Microsoft, Oracle, Sage, Xansa (now Steria), Cisco, Symbol Technologies, Websense, SGI. • Several of these are at the Thames Valley Business Park .

  37. Conclusion There has been a shift in both the industries and the social class structure in both settlements Getting a clear picture of the shift requires a translation of both industrial and social class structure amongst the years Commuting patterns have changed in both settlements, the change in Blackburn has been more pronounced than the one in Reading There is a recurring pattern of commuting for different class structures that occurs regardless of settlement or time DATA !
