About the Transport Strategy
The Strategy is an integrated package of measures to improve transport,
enhance the environment and foster London's economic development. It deals
with improving public transport, including bus, Underground and the overground
railways and addressing the need for a unified publicly owned Underground.
It also seeks early improvements in the reliability, quality, and capacity
of London's bus network. For the longer term it proposes a package of
new rail lines. Overall the strategy aims to increase the capacity of
London's rail and Underground system by up to 50 per cent by 2016.
It also examines how best to tackle congestion on London's streets, including
proposing a central London congestion charge, and the need to provide
efficient access for London's deprived communities and to regeneration
areas. And it looks at how conditions can be improved for all users of
London's streets - car users, buses, and people walking and cycling. It
includes plans to improve travel options for disabled people. Last but
not least, the Strategy also includes proposals to address the needs of
business, for deliveries, servicing and freight.
