Transport Strategies, Funding Bids and Current Consultations

Nottingham Local Transport Plan

The Nottingham Local Transport Plan (LTP) is an official document that outlines the City Council’s long-term transport strategy. You can find the latest version below:

Local Transport Plan

The East Midlands Combined County Authority will be combining local transport plans together for Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, Derby and Derbyshire, so there will be a single integrated plan, rather than four.

Local Cycling Walking and Infrastructure Plan

The authorities of Derby, Derbyshire, Nottingham, and Nottinghamshire have created a Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan (LCWIP). This plan shows the routes we want to improve for cycling and walking over the next 15 years.
