Issue details
Active Travel Masterplan
The Active Travel Masterplan is a
comprehensive plan that sets out the existing and future network of
active travel infrastructure required to enable and provide for
sustainable and healthy forms of transport, as well as addressing
the climate emergency, reducing inequalities, improving air
quality, tackling obesity and reducing traffic congestion across
Bath and North East Somerset.
By implementing infrastructure improvements and behaviour change
campaigns, the measures identified in the Active Travel Masterplan
will improve the safety, accessibility, and attractiveness of
active travel options, while contributing to a reduction in carbon
emissions from vehicular transport and the health and wellbeing of
residents through supporting them to change their travel
habits.
