Our vision of future transport

All our communities can develop into healthy, unpolluted, inclusive, prosperous places to live, work and enjoy, well-connected and served by green and fair transport that works for everyone.

Our mission and our offer

We want to ensure that public, community, active and shared transport is prioritised, celebrated and developed, so everyone can access opportunities, get around, and live their lives by sustainable means.  

The UK's biggest source of emissions is transport, most of which comes from private cars. We are working together across the various different forms of sustainable transport that we represent to improve provision for and takeup of alternatives to the private car.

We were proud to be able to put on an event together at COP26. The event brought together a panel of government, academic, industry and community experts to look at what broader policy and funding support is required to create; climate-safe, inclusive, healthy transport systems and behaviours. The event included colourful examples that paint an inspiring picture of pathways to realise this transition.

At the 2024 Labour Party Conference, the STA organised a led ride using shared bikes from the Liverpool scheme. Labour MPs including ministers and Transport Select Committee members joined members of the alliance.
