The LTP 2 provides a mix of transport initiatives aimed at reduced reducing local and citywide vehicle emissions, thereby helping to improve air quality across all West Yorkshire Districts. These transport initiatives can be split into 3 main themes, including:
- Traffic demand management techniques
(eg. Promote public transport, priority measures and integrated transport)
- Encouraging more sustainable travel
(eg. Travelwise, travel plans, strategic environmental assessment)
- Actions to reduce vehicle emissions
(Traffic management schemes, use of cleaner fuels & vehicle technologies)
