This consultation seeks views on draft plans to improve air quality. The Government’s primary driver for action on air quality is the impact it can have on health and the environment. A cleaner, healthier environment benefits people and the economy.
The plans set out actions being planned or implemented at local, regional and national levels to meet the annual and hourly EU limit values for nitrogen dioxide in the shortest possible time.
Birmingham City Council has developed a new Road Safety Strategy with support from the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents.
Giving people the confidence to choose walking and cycling as their preferred way of getting around is vital. The Road Safety Strategy describes our plans to create safer roads, safer people and safer vehicles. Cyclists are identified as one of the key ‘vulnerable road users’ within the strategy, and we are especially keen to hear their views.
The WM Integrated Transport Authority would like feedback from people who live in the West Midlands about the West Midlands Strategic Transport Plan "Movement for Growth". Public consultation will be carried out between Monday 27 July and Friday 16 October 2015.
