Details

Report summarising evaluation findings. The findings show that the Local Sustainable Transport Fund was successful in achieving its objectives, particularly in relation to:

• the local economy
• carbon emissions
• wider social and economic benefits
• physical activity

There was less direct evidence of its impacts on air quality or road safety, although both may have benefited to some degree.
