The future of the Programme is being considered in the context of the available budget for 2011 and the National Recovery Plan. The programme is one I believe has considerable merit and although the scope and scale originally envisaged for the scheme is no longer possible given the current fiscal situation, there may be some scope to proceed with a scheme scaled back in size as Smarter Travel Areas have the potential to provide a basis for future evidence based investment in the range of sustainable travel measures.
