Transport Strategies, Funding Bids and Current Consultations

Public Transport Vision

Nottingham is a top city in the UK for public transport, with a new transport hub at the railway station, an extended tram system, and a great bus network with two award-winning operators.

To achieve this, the Council needs a strong and clear strategy.

Nottingham Local Transport Plan

The Nottingham Local Transport Plan (LTP) is an official document that outlines the City Council’s long-term transport strategy and a three-year investment plan. The current LTP started on April 1, 2011. Each year, we create an updated implementation plan. You can find the latest version below:

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. We are updating Nottingham City’s plan based on public feedback.
