Key objectives

The key objectives of this project are to:

  • reduce the level of through traffic in the residential roads in the map
  • reduce traffic speeds where vehicles are going above the speed limit and reduce the perception of road danger
  • improve road safety
  • encourage more walking and cycling 

To help achieve these objectives we have been working closely and collaboratively with representatives from resident associations within and also outside of the borough  to co-design solutions to improve their neighbourhoods. 

We will continue to: 

  • build on relationships with residents 
  • work together to find the best solutions
  • be clear about the key aims and objectives of the project and its scope
  • ensure residents have opportunities to offer their solutions to resolve traffic and road safety problems
  • communicate regularly to keep residents informed and involved throughout the various project stages
