Transportation Planning

Transportation Planning is part of Transport and Traffic Services. Under the Directorate of Environmental and Regeneration Services, Traffic and Transport Services include Transport Planning, Development Control, Road Safety and Traffic and Parking Design.

The Council's integrated transport strategy is laid out in chapter 8 of the current Unitary Development Plan and the transport priorities are listed in the Interim Local Implementation Plan.
