South East Forum For Sustainability

Friends of the Earth, Campaign for Better Transport, CPRE, CTC and Living Streets have this week published a manifesto asking the future government to commit to a better more cost effective transport system.

The manifesto sets out recommendations which ensure that our transport system:

Provides sustainable jobs
Tackles climate change
Increases opportunities
Improves people’s health and quality of life
Connects communities

Stephen Joseph  (executive director of the Campaign for Better Transport)  said: “This manifesto is about practical and affordable changes that can be made to improve everyday transport, giving people more choice in how they get about and making alternatives to cars easier and cheaper to use.”
