Climate Safe Streets


We were delighted to be able to secure pledges from Labour, the Liberal Democrats and the Green Party, and a statement from the Conservatives supportive of elements of our five Climate Safe Streets ‘asks’. These were:

  1. Commit to annual targets to reduce vehicle usage by 45% by 2030
  2. Create people-friendly streets that are safe and attractive for active travel
  3. Bring in a borough-wide network of healthy school streets
  4. Reduce vehicle emissions and reallocate road space
  5. Promote e-bikes and zero-carbon deliveries

We will be pushing ahead with this campaign and working with the new Greenwich Council leader and cabinet member responsible for transport to implement these in the coming years, in line with the borough’s commitment to becoming carbon neutral by 2030.
