Representation Summary:

Extensive modal shift required in Ipswich to improve air quality, reduce carbon emissions and reduce impacts of traffic from new developments. Suffolk County Council modelling indicates just over 15% modal shift required in Ipswich by 2026 (as well as improvements to existing network). Sustainable travel options in Ipswich are poor/need considerable investment. Insufficient evidence that funding to deliver required improvements is available. Local Plan is unsound - there are insufficient actions and investments proposed to improve air quality and deliver required modal shift. Cycling network is poor - people won't want to cycle and there is lack of cycle training.
