Our transport Vision in full
Our transport vision is that (by 2045):
West Northamptonshire has moved rapidly to achieve a net zero emissions transport system by 2045. Working together with our communities we have made travel by active modes like walking and cycling the natural first choice for short trips, travel by public transport has become increasingly attractive and accessible, and communities are less dependent on private cars. Our transport system is both safer and cleaner, benefitting our health and the environment, and supporting the access needs of everyone in our community to foster social inclusion and wellbeing. More resilient infrastructure and services increase opportunities for people to live their best lives by facilitating vibrant town and local centres, and a thriving local economy.
