Summary of the Strategy

Moving Byron is broken into four sections:

  1. The Big Picture
  2. Connecting Communities
  3. Actions
  4. Background Information.

The Strategy is based around seven key topics, or 'Future Directions', and they all have at least one 'desired outcome' identified.

Parts 1 and 2

The seven topics are covered in the first two sections of the Strategy (The Big Picture & Connecting Communities). They are:

  1. Transport delivery
  2. Cycling, walking and active movement
  3. Public transport
  4. Planning for sustainable transport
  5. Safe access
  6. Sustainability
  7. The way forward
