The SevernNet Transport Charter presents a vision for transport across the Portbury, Avonmouth and Severnside areas, addressing its transport challenges and opportunities. It has been developed based on the knowledge and expertise of stakeholders from across the area and wider region.
Portbury Avonmouth Severnside (PAS) needs rapid improvements to public transport and active travel to alleviate reliance on car travel, address transport poverty and support decarbonisation of transport. Better options can help address a skills shortage and wide reports of recruitment challenges. Poor transport links to key communities is an important causal factor. Improving transport will help accelerate growth and recovery across the area. Addressing smarter approaches to freight is also vital.
Getting transport working for the area is critical to the achievement of ambitions for growth, employment and skills development, and meeting net zero targets.
We welcome your participation in this event to discuss the charter, and comsider the priorities and next steps.
This is now an online event due to the uncertainties around Covid in early January.
Joining instryuctions will be sent out a couple of days before the event.
