Project overview
An Active Neighbourhood aims to help residents to make short trips on foot, by cycle or by public transport, instead of jumping in their car. Active Neighbourhoods also seek to make our roads a safer place for all users.
Active Neighbourhoods be achieved through:
- New crossings, walking and cycling facilities
- Introduction of measures around schools to improve road safety
- Measures to prevent ‘rat running’ in residential streets
- More walking and cycling routes connecting communities
- Prioritising the movement of people over vehicles
- Environmentally friendly community spaces
