Pedestrians

Walking accounts for almost 30% of all journeys, and over 80% of journeys of less than a mile and is a very important mode of transport. Also the number of people who experience mobility problems is likely to grow in years to come. Therefore the need to cater for the transport requirements of disabled and elderly people will become increasingly important.

These pages outline how we plan to assist the pedestrians and disabled people who use our network.
