Abstract Excessive “land take” is unsustainable because it causes detrimental and partly irreversible changes to ecosystems as well as adverse social and economic impacts. Here, we showcase three policy instruments for reducing land take, namely quantitative targets, tradable planning permits and infrastructure cost calculators and give an overview of their current application in selected European countries. We conclude that proven and field-tested instruments are available and that it is important to tap their full potential for further reducing land take in Europe.
