Our transport connections effectively allow us to get around for living, working and learning within and outside WarringahContext
We need to shift away from a high dependency on car-based travel to effectively connect with places where we work, learn and play.
Public transport needs to be an attractive alternative that is accessible to all residents. Services need to operate at times convenient to residents and provide links to all our suburbs as well as centres outside Warringah. The efficiency of our road network needs to be improved through better management and upgrading of key intersections. We want opportunities for park and ride facilities near transport hubs and centres.
Locating homes closer to educational, employment and retail precincts will reduce travel and lessen the impact of population increases on the transport network. Higher density residential development around the main public transport routes will also encourage people to shift away from car-based transport. Better local connectivity via cycleways and footpaths will help us to access services, education and employment.
Greater flexibility by employers, allowing different start and finish times as well as opportunities to work from home will also spread the load. The arrival of improved internet services will help make this a reality.
