Outcome 4

More choice in how we move

Make walking, cycling, accessible travel and public transport practical parts of a connected system.

Why this is an outcome

Sidewalks, ramps, crossings, audible signals, active travel and the lack of realistic alternatives to car dependence.

Physical Development Plan alignment

Active travel; multimodal transport; accessibility.
