The Cabinet considered a report of the Deputy Chief Executive and Executive Director (Growth and Housing) setting out an approach and timeline to develop a transport strategy using service design principles which, once completed, will set the context for the review of the Local Transport Plan (LTP).

Resolved:-

1.  That the progress with developing a transport strategy, be noted.

2.  That the timetable for engaging stakeholders about a transport strategy for the Borough, be endorsed.

Reason for Decision

In line with the Council’s Vision and Values, the proposed approach ensures that the views and needs of the Council’s customers, residents and businesses are at the heart of the new service design and transport strategy.

Other Options

Doing nothing would mean that the current LTP would be out of date and would be inconsistent with the 2050 outcomes.

This is an Executive Function
