Update event on latest Low Carbon Transport Strategy plans at St Ives Library on Wednesday, 11 September.

A public update event exhibiting the latest details about all the projects which are being developed as part of the St Ives Low Carbon Transport Strategy and the timetable for delivering the different elements is being held at the town’s library between 2pm and 7pm on Wednesday, 11 September.

One of the nine Town Deal projects being funded and delivered as part of the St Ives Town Deal programme, the aim of the Low Carbon Transport Strategy is to help reduce the impact of vehicles on St Ives and introduce measures that encourage walking, cycling and the use of public transport. 

These include proposals aimed at reducing traffic congestion and parking demand in the town centre, enhancing public transport options and accessibility, improving air quality and health outcomes for residents and visitors and supporting local businesses by creating a more attractive and vibrant town.

During the past few months discussions have taken place with stakeholders, community groups and individuals to provide local information and shape the proposals contained with the Strategy. These have resulted in changes being made to some of the projects. 

The aim of the exhibition, which is open to all, is to provide an update on the current plans. 

Members of the Low Carbon Transport Strategy team, Cornwall Council’s highways department and representatives of the St Ives Town Deal Board and St Ives Town Council will also be on hand to answer any questions.
