New report calls for ‘Total Transport’ approach to breaking down policy divides
A new report published today by pteg - ‘Total Transport: Working across sectors to achieve better outcomes’ – highlights the essential role of public transport, walking and cycling in achieving key health, social care and employment policy goals. However, it also warns that this contribution could be put at risk unless there is more focus on collaborative, cross-sector funding and delivery of transport interventions.
Already, there is evidence to suggest that transport schemes with a track record in supporting core policy objectives across sectors are having to close or reduce in scope due to funding pressures.
