Representation Summary:

Comment: Investment in an improved public transport network provides the opportunity to provide well-planned green and blue infrastructure integrated into the network. The value of well-planned green and blue infrastructure with regards the services it provides and in achieving the desired outcomes described in 9.2 and 9.3 should be made clear. Furthermore, it should be set out in the BCP that this will be a requirement in the planning of public transport network improvements from the earliest stages. Further detail on the requirements for green and blue infrastructure investment should be described in each of the Transport policies.
