Introduction

9.1 Transport policy is an essential element of integrated land use planning. It is supportive of, and complementary to land use strategies. Within the framework of the Unitary Development Plan therefore, transport policies and land use planning are used to ensure that the whole range of benefits and improvements on the quality of life can be achieved. The Council’s overall vision is therefore supported by these policies and proposals.
