Duty to co-operate? Not specified

Representation Summary:

Poor air quality in the five AQMAs in Ipswich is a result of road traffic – particularly NO2 and NOX. Mitigation needs to include a restriction on operational parking in commercial development. All new residential development needs to include significant contributions towards sustainable transport options. The previous draft mentioned that modelling showed emissions in AQMAs were likely to increase and more AQMAs declared during the plan period. This cannot be allowed to happen.
