The Birmingham Transport Plan 2031 Consultation – 26/2/20 & 3/3/20

The Birmingham Transport Plan 2031 describes what the city needs to do differently to meet the demands of the future. The plan contains a set of principles that will guide investment in transport so that it is able to serve a future Birmingham that is home to more people and that is a better environment in which to live and work for everyone irrespective of age, disability or income. These measures are designed to:

• Reduce transport’s damaging impact on the environment, supporting Birmingham’s commitment to becoming a carbon neutral city by 2030
• Eliminate road danger particularly in residential areas
• Connect people with new job and training opportunities
• Reconnect communities by prioritising people over cars
• Revitalise the city centre and local centres.
