Traffic flows and air quality need to be monitored and assessed as new developments are built out under current Local Plans, and remedial action taken when required. Until such remedial action has been shown to be effective, further development around problem areas should be curtailed. Planning conditions relating to transport infrastructure/travel plans should be enforced. Cross-boundary Transport Assessments are required for the draft Local Plans and any remedial measures identified, tested (through modelling) and implemented. Assess the viability of direct cross-town bus routes that avoid the need to go into the town centre, e.g. Ransomes via the hospital to Whitehouse.
