What do you think about our Sustainable Transport Strategy?

Overview

Southwark’s vision for equitable, green and healthy streets by 2030

Our Sustainable Transport Strategy sets out Southwark’s approach to improve people’s experience of travel to, from and around the borough. People’s wellbeing and their experiences of moving are at the heart of the strategy. This builds on the lessons learnt from the delivery of the Movement Plan 2019 and continuous engagement which took place over the past few years.

When we published the Movement Plan in 2019, we set out to update our strategy every five years. However, since then the world has changed greatly. Faced with the realities of climate, health and air pollution crises, we need to act quickly and ambitiously, against a background of declining funding. For these reasons we are updating our strategy now and we would welcome your views on how you are experiencing these changes and how we can work together to deliver our nine missions.

Why your views matter

We are committed to work together to provide the best possible experience for people who travel around the borough.

We asked the views of Southwark residents in 2019 when consulting on the Movement Plan, and have collected information from several other consultations that the council has carried out in recent years. We have defined our missions and objectives based on this information, our professional expertise, data, research, and working together with council colleagues.

We would like to hear from you to learn from your experience of living and moving in the borough and your view on how to achieve our missions.
