Change suggested by respondent:

Improve public transport for rural areas and smaller villages.
Improve walking and cycling routes into Norwich centre away from roads.

Representation Summary:

This strategy, like so many of the ideas put forward is in conflict with the plan for over 49000 new homes, many of them in areas that mean the only method of transport available to reach the places of employment is by car. Because of the significant increase planned for new homes it is probable that air quality, particularly near Norwich will decline as more people will be driving into the city for work, therefore the policy is unsound as it conflicts with the policy of 49000 new homes.

Change suggested by respondent:

Withdraw Reg.19 for proper consultation with all the Town and Parish Councils.
