Edinburgh’s transport system needs to be better connected, cleaner, accessible and more sustainable to help us meet the challenges set out in the City Mobility Plan.
This means we need to make radical changes to the way we, and the things we buy, move around the city.
We would like sustainable transport – walking, wheeling, cycling and public transport – to be the first choice for everyone across Edinburgh. For that to happen we need integrated infrastructure to support those modes.
Initiatives like integrated ticketing and supporting information will complement the changes to physical infrastructure. By investing in new technologies and different ways to travel, we can
- make journeys more sustainable
- give people more choice
- make sure people of all abilities are able to move around the city
- reduce congestion
- improve health and wellbeing.
