I have read and studied the temperature differences of several US cities from the link Climate Central. 2. Which are the main UHI effects that you can identify in your area? ![enter image description here][1] ![enter image description here][2] -Air pollution - The only public transport in Bristol within the city is by bus, which is inefficient, with bad planning and inconsistency in the services. . That means that most of the people go everywhere by car. It is often that one household has at least one car. -As well, because of the great use of car, the city is not pedestrian or cycling friendly. There are no good connections within the city, and even though the city is named the Europen Green Capital for 2015, it does not feel like that. 3. Which are the measures you would propose? I would propose these measures: Better transport planning, promote cycling culture - including making proper bike lanes, make the walking in the city more inviting. Plant trees on the avenues and more trees in the parks. Is UHI effect concerning policy making in your area? So far, as I am familiar with, not so much beyond the educational part.
