Road improvements are required to alleviate existing congestion in the town centre and will also be required to accommodate new developments. The Ipswich Garden Suburb SPD infrastructure requirements are all required, as are those specified as conditions to planning applications. Some are needed ahead of development. SOCS still oppose multiple starts. Air quality urgently needs improving before encouraging cycling and walking in AQMAs. Specific cycling/walking measures need to be implemented. Improvements to Westerfield Railway Station and the Ipswich-Felixstowe line are required, and an assessment of the viability of a further station in the vicinity of Futura Park.
