Transport

Transport theme group logoThe Transport Theme Group:

Long-term outcomes

• The need for travel will have reduced as developments for learning and leisure, health services and
shops and employment will have been positioned in convenient places.
• The quality of Coventry's local public transport services will have further improved and people will be
more likely to travel in ways that are less damaging to the environment.

Short-term priorities

• Plan to make services, including schools, employment, culture and leisure opportunities more locally
accessible and to reduce the need to travel (residents and commuters)
• Reduce car use and encourage people to travel by public transport, on foot and by bicycle, particularly
during peak periods
• Ensure that the transport infrastructure, and especially public transport, is able to cope with planned
growth in the city
• Improve perceptions about safety of travelling by public transport, by bicycle or on foot and maintain the
city's low rates of road traffic accidents
• Reduce CO2 emissions due to transport
