We have heard time and again that Bristol needs better transport. We were delighted to support the Bristol Climate and Nature Partnership to develop a Bristol Transport Vision based on Community Climate Action Plans.
Transport is a significant challenge faced by Bristol. It is a top issue in public opinion surveys on climate action, and and an area where progress in terms of reducing emissions has been challenging.
We supported Bristol Climate & Nature Partnership’s Community Climate Action project to articulate their transport priorities in the form of a citywide Transport Vision. This built on Emilia’s previous work developing WESTACT’s manifesto.
Praxis supported the development of the transport vision through co-designing and facilitating workshops with expert and lived experience stakeholders from across the city, collaborating with the community partners to draw out the transport priorities in their community climate action plans, and bring them together into a citywide plan. The full report also connects to the lineage of previous sustainable transport plans for the city, and the recommendations from Bristol’s citizens assembly.
The Community Climate Action Project is funded by the National Lottery’s Community Fund and co-ordinated by Bristol Climate & Nature Partnership.
