Executive summary
This chapter is an extension of Public Health Wales’ Making a Difference publication and is intended to be used as a standalone document, and support the work by Public Service Boards and other multiagency partnerships in Wales.
It focuses specifically on air pollution from road traffic sources since this is where available evidence is strongest, and also because the majority of air quality problems in Wales stem from this pollution source.
Air pollution from road traffic is a significant national problem. The solutions outlined seek to reduce the emissions from road traffic and thus achieve positive public health impacts through developing a more sustainable economy, thriving society, and optimum health and well-being for the present and future generations in Wales.
