Medway Local Plan (Regulation 18, 2024)
Representation ID: 2470
Received: 04/09/2024
Respondent: Greenwich Students' Union
Representation Summary:
Students at Medway would welcome the following initiatives;
Increased cycling routes including rental bike schemes to connect the towns in a sustainable and affordable way
Increased bus routes
Increased traffic free areas to encourage walking and public transport options
Students are generally as a group more dependent on public transport than others. Therefore any improvements to public transport in the area are welcome. Of particular concern are bus services, as well as the effectiveness of services at peak times. This is especially relevant for Medway students, as a significant number commute to the Medway campuses.
