    GREATER MANCHESTER TRANSPORT STRATEGY 2040 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A sustainable urban mobility plan for the future February 2017 2 GREATER MANCHESTER TRANSPORT STRATEGY 2040 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Contents 1 Introduction 4 2 Our vision 5 3 Critical transport challenges 6 4 Keeping it customer-focussed 10 5 From local neighbourhoods to global markets 13 6 Making it happen 22 3 1 Introduction 1. Greater Manchester is changing. Not only is it growing, both in terms of population and economy, it is also on a path towards significant devolution of powers and funding from central Government, supported by a directly- elected mayor. It is in this context of change that we are developing our 2040 Transport Strategy. 2. The aim is to establish a fully integrated, high capacity transport system for Greater Manchester, with travelling customers at its heart. 3. Transport is crucial in supporting Greater Manchester’s ambitious plans – growth will need and be driven by new connectivity. This is true on both a local and pan-northern level; Greater Manchester has a fundamental role to play at the heart of a successful Northern Powerhouse. 4. Why 2040? The opportunities offered by devolution and greater local determination allow us to take a much bolder and longer-term view of our transport needs. We want to take this opportunity to ensure that we can sustain the success of Greater Manchester for generations to come. 5. Our 2040 Vision for Transport, which we consulted on in 2015, set the scene for the start of a radical, and ambitious, new approach to planning our transport system in support of long-term needs and aspirations.
