Objectives of the Survey
	The following key elements from the White Paper ‘A New Deal for Transport: Better for Everyone’, underpin the output of the study: integrating the proposed measures for Handy Cross with Local Transport Plans; providing a better interchange; tackling this pinch point; providing better facilities for public transport; protecting the urban and rural environments, and providing local and trunk road users with better safety and security facilities. The adopted Buckinghamshire County Structure Plan (March 1996) provides a basis for the Local Plan. It identifies that the High Wycombe urban area is a strategic growth area. The proposed level of growth is suppressed due to the many constraints that are imposed on the town. The Wycombe Transport Strategy aims to develop a better transport system to tackle the problems of traffic congestion and pollution. The details of the strategy are still evolving. The measures proposed through the Handy Cross Package have a synergy with the Wycombe Transport Strategy.
