The development and use of land has major implications for travel and transport. The City Strategy seeks for Southampton:
the transport infrastructure needed to sustain its prosperity;
the transport facilities and services to enable people to travel to, from and within the city, safely, easily and affordably;
to meet the movement needs of its citizens and businesses, now and in the future.
10.2
The Local Transport Plan (LTP) sets out the council's strategy for achieving an integrated, high quality modern transport system. Based on the LTP strategy, the Local Plan includes policies for use in determining planning applications. This section of the plan focuses on transport and infrastructure proposals. General policies for travel and car parking can be found in the sustainable development principles section of the plan.
