Active and safe

Strategic outcomes

Strategic outcomes	Success criteria	Where
Our transport network is safe and secure, people feel confident about using public transport and our public spaces are well designed and maintained, encouraging people to interact and spend time together.	Few traffic collisions and reduced incidences of crime linked to the transport network, better enforcement of existing rules to reduce road danger, improved design and condition of streets and public spaces.	Borough-wide
All of our neighbourhoods, schools and town centres are connected by 'healthy routes' that enable walking and cycling in a low/no motor traffic environment.	Reduced motor traffic on residential streets. Increased levels of walking and cycling. Children from 12 years old making independent journeys by foot and cycle is normal.	Borough-wide
