The TPS generally supports the draft plan as a bold and visionary transport strategy that, if successful, will introduce a step change in the quality of life in London.  It is wide ranging in its consideration of London’s transport system and comprehensive in the range of issues examined and proposals put forward.  The TPS response pushes the Mayor for more urgent action on air quality, road safety and congestion, and to set different targets for different parts of London, recognising the significantly different transport characteristics of central and outer London.

The TPS also recognises that many of the proposals in the Strategy require encouragement, research, feasibility study, and unspecified scales of improvement.  Quantifying the scale of individual interventions and their effects on the outcomes as a whole is a further piece of work to be done, and will have a key bearing on the level of investment needed to deliver a successful transport strategy for London.
