The States of Guernsey has published a new transport plan for the north of the Island.

The Better Transport Plan aims to improve transport choice in and around St Sampson, in preparation for a number of new housing developments in the area.

The plan proposes a new network of linked walking and cycling routes to make travelling on foot and by bike safer and easier.

Deputy Lindsay de Sausmarez, President of Environment and Infrastructure (E&I), said: “However you prefer to travel… we want to give you more choices, more freedom, and safer, less stressful ways to get around.”

The States said it would improve public transport as well as the experience for drivers, including adding new one-way systems, and improving junctions and road signage.

It also plans to introduce innovations like car clubs and a new app.
