Local plan not radical enough. To solve air quality, obesity, health issues due to physical inactivity, traffic congestion, etc, there needs to be change in modal shift and improved walking and cycling infrastructure. Park and Ride facilities negatively impact on rural bus services outside of Ipswich. Rural services should be prioritised over park and rides. Nothing in CS20 about reducing rat running on residential roads, increasing use of 20mph speed limits, nor implementing protected cycle tracks - key to achieving required modal shift to reduce congestion and air pollution. Proposals likely to have little effect on walking and cycling levels.
