Siloed transport and planning decision-making; as well as fragmented and short-term public sector funding are some of the key barriers to integrating sustainable transport and housing. Lack of sustainable transport within new housing sites risks creating car dependent development and isolated communities.

The report published by The Transport Knowledge Hub/KPMG  identifies an eight-point plan to help overcome these barriers and secure the full benefits of new housing as Government target 300,000 new homes a year. The plan has been developed off the back of research and insight following in-depth consultation with stakeholders across the sector.

The research was commissioned by Greener Journeys on behalf of the Transport Knowledge Hub, who work with Local Enterprise Partnership (LEPs), local government and policymakers to encourage local transport investment that drives sustainability and economic growth.
