21 The Government wishes to see the number of journeys made to airports by sustainable modes of transport maximised (DfT Feb 2017) I am particularly concerned to ensure that where there are blockages, congestion points or limitations around ports and airports, we take the necessary steps to address those, and we will (SoS Transport, Feb 2017)

26 26 A world leading regional airport Delivering easy and convenient access, excellent on-time performance, friendly and efficient customer service, a great range of destinations, state-of-the-art facilities and a distinctive sense of place that reflects the unique part of the world we serve. Employment and supporting economic growth Creating employment and supporting economic growth by connecting the South West of England and South Wales to new markets, talent and tourists. Our fivepillars To make sure we get the best possible outcome for our passengers, neighbours and the region as a whole, our new Master Plan will be guided by five pillars. At the heart of an integrated transport network Making Bristol Airport an integrated transport hub by bringing together different modes of transport, not just for our passengers and staff, but also for people travelling within, to and through the region. Sustainable approach Seeking to reduce and mitigate our effect on communities and the environment, locally and globally, as well as finding opportunities to deliver enhancements. Deliverability Developing proposals which are flexible enough to be delivered in phases to meet demand, and which represent value for money for passengers, airlines and other stakeholders. Consultation point Do you have any comments on our pillars? 17

27 Consultation point How could access to Bristol Airport be improved? The international gateways also create wider travel demands. Bristol Airport has a catchment that extends acrossthe South West and into SouthWales a comprehensive package is proposed to improve access to the airport both by public transport and byroad. There is a focus in national roads policy on effective access to airports as international gateways. Most major airports are also served by direct heavy or light rail links, which play an important role in meeting connectivity needs. To meet the future needs of the Airport it will be necessary toboth improve road capacity on the A38 and transform the quality of public transport connections to the Airport.
