You would assume then that if the strategy will include objectives with regard to sustainable integrated transport systems, that would encompass all modal options, including walking, cycling, public transport and others, and in terms of the mechanism to review in the interim implementation of the report, any relevant transport strategy of the National Transport Authority, which includes modal shift. That would, in my view and with regard to the legislation, place an obligation that would include modal shift and the breakdown of modal share in the functional area of each local authority.
