Transport
Transport is important for a number of reasons. The use of cars creates carbon emissions through the burning of fossil fuels. Additionally, issues such as safety, congestion and public health can all be impacted by the transport choices we make. Developments will mean a change in transport patterns for an area and it is important that developers consider what those impacts are and how they may be minimised.
