EC11. It is imperative that transport solutions are weighted on alternatives to car use. Regardless of EV uptake in the future, all decisions must encourage active travel and use of public transport. Evs will still contribute to traffic congestion and particulate pollution. There should be suitably compliant bicycle and electric scooter hire points in villages to allow clean, safe transport within SStaffs and the Black Country and vice versa, using protected routes which avoid mixing with motor vehicles. The dedicated bicycle lane in Bilbrook should be extended to Codsall and Perton to facilitate safe travel for school children and commuters.
