Brighton & Hove City Council's website
|
| Brighton & Hove is an historic city, in the south-east of England, known internationally for its abundant Regency and Victorian architecture. It is also a seaside tourist destination, with over 11km of seafront attracting eight million visitors a year. |
|
In addition, it is a leading European Conference destination; home to two leading universities, a major regional shopping centre, and home to some of the area’s major employers.
All of this, especially when set against the background of continuing economic growth, major developments across the city and a growing population, has led the city council to adopt a vision for the city as a place with a co-ordinated transport system that balances the needs of all users and minimises damage to the environment.
The sustainable transport strategy that will help deliver this vision has been developed within the framework of a Local Transport Plan, following national UK guidelines. The ARCHIMEDES measures also support the vision, which enables the city to propose innovative tools and approaches to increase the energy-efficiency and reduce the environmental impact of urban transport.
