Transport policy
- Back Together Again
- Despite being inseparable, decisions on transport and land use are increasingly being made in isolation of each other. The Government’s Ten-Year Transport Plan promotes mobile-intensive lifestyles, while its Communities Plan is generating more traffic and pressure for road building. This report explains how transport and land use can be re-united to support more environmentally sustainable lifestyles.

- Regional Transport Strategies
- Regional Transport Strategies (RTS) are produced, through consultation, by Regional Planning Bodies and aim to provide strategic guidance on transport planning for local councils. They also include priorities for major transport investment such as on road and rail. The next revision of RTS will take place over the next two years, and this timely publication provides advice to those interested in reducing the detrimental impacts of transport on urban and rural areas.

- Running to Stand Still
- The first heavyweight analysis of the Government’s Ten-Year Transport Plan written by Professor Phil Goodwin, who advised on the preparation of the Government's Transport White Paper. His analysis reveals that the Government's targets for reducing congestion are misleading and the benefits of measures to boost bus use and walking and cycling have been underestimated. The research raises major questions about the current direction of transport policy and sets out the case for a change in approach.

- The South West Area Multi-Modal Study
Options for the A303/A30
The Government has commissioned a major study to examine transport problems between London and the South West. Our report focuses on proposals within the study to dual the A303/A30, including through the Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. CPRE's report highlights the flawed assumptions underpinning the road building proposals; the significant environmental damage that would result; and recommends an alternative approach to improving road safety.- Report

- Valuing the Small: Counting the Benefits
A paper presented by Professor Phil Goodwin (UCL) for CPRE, CTC, Living Streets, Slower Speeds Initiative, Sustrans and Transport 2000
A detailed report that examines the current obstacles to developing small-scale integrated transport measures (like safe routes to school and bus priority schemes) and explains why current methods for appraising transport schemes tend to favour big infrastructure projects like roads. The report contains proposals for ensuring these small-scale measures achieve their full potential in delivering a sustainable transport policy.- Report
