Help shape the Local Transport Plan for Wiltshire as consultation begins
Wiltshire Council is asking people to give their views on the Local Transport Plan 4 (LPT4), as the consultation has begun and runs until 23:59 on Friday 24 January 2025.
LTP4 covers the period 2025-2038 and will set the direction for all transport in Wiltshire, including road safety, highway network management and enhancement, car parking, buses, rail, walking and wheeling, freight, electric vehicles and more. It will set out how the county's existing transport infrastructure will be improved in the coming years.
To enable people to find out more about the consultation and to ask questions, people can sign up for the following information webinars:
- Tuesday 3 December at 6pm
- Monday 13 January at 6pm
People can also share their views through an online survey, which is available at Wiltshire Local Transport Plan - Wiltshire Council.
Cllr Tamara Reay, Cabinet Member for Transport, said: Transport is something that is important to us all, whether we are motorists, cyclists, pedestrians or users of public transport. It is also a key enabler for economic growth.
That is why it is important that everyone takes part in this consultation to help shape the future of transport in Wiltshire. To find out more and ask questions, people can join us at one of our information webinars, or they can read all the documents and share their views through the survey on our website.
We are taking a place-led approach to LTP4 by aligning it to our Local Plan, and this will enable us to take into account the unique circumstances and requirements of our rural towns and villages and could help to unlock more funding to improve transport throughout Wiltshire.
To find out more about the Local Transport Plan, to sign up for the online events, to take part in the consultation when it launches or to order physical copies of the plan, people should go to: Wiltshire Local Transport Plan - Wiltshire Council.
The online survey will be available until 23:59 on Friday 24 January 2025.
