Local Transport Plan

Please tell us what you think about our website, we welcome your feedback.

The government’s 1998 White Paper on Transport, ‘A New Deal for Transport: Better for Everyone’, introduced the concept of Local Transport Plans (LTP) to steer the development of national transport policies at the local level. The Transport Act 2000 then made it a statutory requirement for local transport studies to produce LTPs.

The Wiltshire LTP sets out the council’s objectives, implementation plans and targets for transport in Wiltshire. Furthermore, as a document developed through partnership working and extensive consultation, the LTP also provides the framework for all other organisations with a direct or in direct involvement in transport in Wiltshire.

Wiltshire’s first full Local Transport Plan (LTP), was published in July 2000 and covered the period 2001/02-2005/06. During this period the council produced LTP Annual Progress Reports, (APR) which detailed delivery and spending on schemes, and measured progress towards specific targets. A LTP Delivery Report which comprehensively reviewed LTP1 was produced in 2006.

Electronic copies of LTP1, its associated plans are available from the Transport Policy Team.
