Sustainable Transport Survey
Lower Halstow Parish Council
18th May 2021
Dear Residents,
Sustainable Transport Survey
We have recently launched a short consultation in regards to three project areas proposed in our Climate and Ecological Emergency Action Plan (PDF 1.79MB). These are car clubs, bike shares and EV charge points. Providing low emission car or bike hire via ‘pay as you go’ services could provide a useful alternative to car ownership and increase active travel.
Additionally, the survey will help us understand where there is currently the demand for EV charging infrastructure within Swale, as a data gathering exercise to aid potential funding applications. Residents are reminded that providing the location of a desired charge point will not necessarily result in installation.
The projects in our Plan will be part of our solution to the climate crisis, providing more sustainable forms of transport and helping us to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2030. These projects will also help improve air quality for all in Swale.
To take part, residents can complete our survey online before Friday 25 June 2021. I would be extremely grateful if you would be able to share this with your local residents, community groups and/or via social media to enable responses from as many residents as possible.
There is also an opportunity for businesses to share their thoughts on integrating these solutions into their operations.
The survey can be found at: https://swale.gov.uk/gtt
If you have any questions about the survey, please contact gracecouch@swale.gov.uk. Members of the public can contact climate@swale.gov.uk with any queries regarding both the survey and our climate action progress.
Thank you for taking the time to support this.
Yours sincerely,
Julian Saunders
