  • Local Transport Plan 4 Draft Strategy
    Local Transport Plan 4 Strategy 2021-2036 0 Executive Summary The Local Transport Plan sets out Norfolk County Council’s plans, policies and programmes on transport and transport infrastructure. The plan details how we will deliver a transport network in Norfolk through identifying the projects and programmes important to us, and in their design and direct delivery. The plan also shows how we will seek to influence our key partners in government, communities, the commercial sector and the third sector. This plan is important because transport is important. Transport enables people to get to work and education. It allows us all to visit friends and relatives. We rely on it for days out, for leisure outings and shopping trips. As such, good transport helps people to improve their skills and qualifications. It allows Norfolk’s economy to flourish and ensures that we get good delivered to our factories and our doorsteps. People’s physical and mental health can be improved, and social isolation reduced, through good transport, especially if people can be given confidence to walk or cycle, and if we can improve our bus and rail links. The plan will set out how we make sure that transport’s impacts are minimised; how we will improve the air quality in our towns and built up areas; and how we plan to reduce carbon emissions. This draft plan contains a transport strategy that looks towards 2036. Our intention is to adopt this plan in April 2021. It will be accompanied by a separate Implementation Plan setting out in detail the short-term schemes, projects and measures that we will implement over a three-year period.

The LTP is a vital tool to help councils, their partners and their local communities, plan for transport in the way that best meets the needs of the local area. The Transport Act 2008 requires that LTP3 contain a long term transport strategy and a short term implementation plan with proposals for delivering the strategy. We can set our own time scales for the strategy and implementation plan, and we can monitor, review and refresh the plan as needed to meet local needs. 1.2 The Act places a number of statutory duties on Derby City Council. These include consulting people, considering the needs of disabled people and considering environmental policies and guidance when preparing LTP3. We have carried out Strategic Environmental, Health Impact and Equality Impact Assessments and we have made sure that LTP3 integrates with other Council plans and duties such as the Network Management Duty (Traffic Management Act 2004) and the Air Quality Action Plan (Environment Act 1995).
