The Department for Transport has not published any recent reports under section 2 of the Road Traffic Reduction (National Targets) Act 1998.

While the Secretary of State for Transport is not obliged to publish further reports, the Department does of course believe that reducing the environmental, social and economic adverse impacts of road traffic is important. Indeed, reducing these impacts, across the entire transport spectrum, is core to the Department's business.

The Government's first report under the Act can be found at
