We want to see alternatives to car travel and road-building, so that we can all get around more easily, sustainably and healthily.
A CPRE report from 2017 has shown that major new roads can actually generate more traffic and the resulting pollution. We’d like to see a more robust public transport system, along with the prioritisation of walking and cycling.
Sustainable development can lead to sustainable transport by allowing people to access local services by foot, cycling or public transport instead of having to drive. We want everyone to have genuine, sustainable travel choices, keeping cars off the road and pollution out of the atmosphere.
