With transport a quarter of the UK’s greenhouse emissions and the main source of air pollution in cities, leadership must be demonstrated to green and clean the country’s infrastructure. It can be a win, win - creating jobs, improving our health, and meeting our climate change commitments to slow global warming. But, we must change how and what we build and fund, and how we travel. How can we put the environment at the heart of infrastructure and deliver sustainable transport
