This plan takes forward the process of delivering integration, building on previous plans, adding and integrating public and community transport, walking and cycling so that investments help to deliver 'One Wales'.
It sets out that joining together proposals for road, rail and public transport will enable people and freight to travel more efficiently and sustainably, while being able to access the goods, markets, services, facilities and places they need.
The strategy grouped the 17 long-term outcomes for transport into five strategic priorities for the next five years:
• Reducing greenhouse gas emissions and other environmental impacts.
• Integrating local transport.
• Improving access between key settlements and sites.
• Enhancing international connectivity.
• Increasing safety and security.
This plan will take forward the process of delivering integration. It builds on previous plans, adding and integrating public and community transport, walking and cycling so that investments help to deliver One Wales.
The National Transport Plan sits alongside the Regional Transport Plans in delivering the Wales Transport Strategy. This will ensure consistency of service provision for our customers across the transport network. This means that national and regional plans will together strengthen local service delivery, for example in helping to improve access to essential services such as health and education.
