While the 5-year Delivery Plan tends to consider large, medium and long-term transport schemes, this Implementation Plan is mainly focussed on local, neighbourhood level priorities and interventions to 2025. A summary of strategic schemes within the 5-Year Delivery Plan are included on Map 1. Rochdale Council in its Corporate Plan 2019-2022 “Prosperous People and Places” outlines a vision of “Making our Borough a great place to grow up, get on and live well”.
