Local Transport Plan

View of transport in Shrewsbury

Following a period of public consultation, Shropshire Council is currently finalising the Shropshire Local Transport Plan (LTP) 2011-2026. The plan covers all aspects of transport and highways, including walking, cycling, public transport, car-based travel, freight, and the management and maintenance of highways.

The Shropshire Local Transport Plan is made up of a number of separate documents:

  • Provisional LTP Strategy (2011-2026). This is the core LTP document which sets out the strategic transport objectives and policies for the period 2011 to 2026
  • The core strategy is supported by a series of LTP Evidence Base documents, and has been subject to a sustainability appraisal
  • LTP Implementation Plan. This is the shorter term LTP delivery plan. It is updated annually. The 2012 plan reviews progress and sets out the projects and schemes to be delivered over the next few years
  • A series of more detailed supplementary LTP strategies and plans will be used to set out how the policies summarised in the LTP strategy will be pursued. Supplementary documents will be prepared and revised as necessary during the LTP period

These documents are attached to this page along with summary versions and the LTP Sustainability Appraisal.
