Have your say on the draft West Northamptonshire Local Transport Plan
Have your say on the policies in Theme 1 - Connecting People Better
Under this theme we have developed 5 policies which are the approaches we will take in order to achieve our aims otherwise knowns as our objectives.
Connecting People Better focuses on:
- Making public transport, walking and cycling accessible to everyone
- Creating greater travel choice to connect people with key services and opportunities
- Delivering vibrant town centres and connected communities
The policy areas are:
| Policy 1: Sustainable Transport Hierarchy | This policy provides the approach West Northamptonshire will take going forward when considering different modes of travel and the interchange and integration between them. |
| Policy 2: Connected and Accessible Networks | This policy seeks to ensure West Northamptonshire benefits from a more efficient and connected transport system consisting of networks across all modes, for all people, and kinds of journey. |
| Policy 3: Improvement Interchanges and Mobility Hubs | This policy supports better integration between specific modes, routes and services at key strategic locations to create more seamless travel and transfers for journeys involving multiple stages or modes of travel. |
| Policy 4: Bus, Coach and Mass Transit | This policy drives the protection of existing bus and coach services across the Council area while seeking to improve availability and service levels to increase reliability, uptake and use. |
