Transport 2010: The 10 Year Plan - Extracts 6.46 For most towns and cities a co-ordinated package of new measures will be needed. In many cases packages of quite small schemes and projects can secure large benefits for local people. Bus priority schemes, traffic management measures such as Home Zones and traffic calming, parking strategies, and new walking and cycling routes can individually or collectively improve transport choices and make a significant difference to the quality of the local environment. 6.54 [Box under heading 'Walking and cycling'] … So we will be looking to authorities to create more traffic-calmed 20mph zones, particularly around schools and in residential areas, where most child accidents occur. We are also evaluating a number of 'Home Zones' - residential areas treated with traffic-calming and other measures, which aim to improve residents' quality of life and improve safety.
