Women have long identified the problems that they encounter in seeking to combine their home and work roles, in cities divided by traditional land-use zoning. This paper draws on work for the British Royal Town Planning Institute on mainstreaming gender considerations into spatial planning, including the creation of a ‘Toolkit’ to do so, along with research on accessible city centres. City-wide transport policies are examined, along with race equality and local accessibility issues. It is argued that promoting mixed land-uses, higher densities, and less car use, can be as problematic for women as old fashioned zoning. This is because policy-makers still hold a divided world view, in which women's needs are secondary to public realm considerations. It is concluded that gender considerations must overarch and crosscut all spatial policy-making, however above reproach, in order to create a unified city that meets the needs of everyone
