Approach to Transport
Applicable Eco-town Standards
Homes should be within 10 minutes walk of:
frequent public transport
neighbourhood services
Access to and through the Eco-town should give priority to walking, cycling and public transport modes
The design of the Eco-town should enable at least 50% of trips originating from the site to be made by modes other than the car
Development Principles
Balancing the needs of the Eco-town standards with the requirements of 21st century.
Understanding where people are travelling and why – and matching this to the most sustainable mode possible.
