Overview

The objective is to rethink the role of infrastructure in order to support sustainable economic growth, improved quality of life and road safety as well as address environmental impacts. This is done by reorganising how we travel to enable more people to choose active and sustainable modes. Our approach will support the planning of new development across Oldham, Ashton and our City Region (Metropolis) whilst integrating infrastructure and transport networks and enhancing environment and ecosystem functions. The project will also contribute towards enabling Greater Manchester’s overall mode-share target of 50% for travel using sustainable means.
