The Carbon Account for Transport meets a commitment contained in the published National Transport Strategy.
What does it do?
The Carbon Account for Transport helps us to take decisions and develop actions to meet the targets in the Climate Change (Scotland) Act 2009, by providing a structure for monitoring and reviewing our progress towards achieving the 'reduced emissions' Strategic Outcome for transport. It does this by presenting, in one place, assessments of all Scottish Government transport policies and projects that are expected to have significant positive or negative impacts on overall carbon emissions.
