• Relationship to Rights of Way Improvement Plan

A Local Transport Plan 3 newsletter was circulated to Forum Members. There was a statutory link between the Rights of Way Improvement Plan (ROWIP) and the Local Transport Plan (LTP).

The LTP encouraged people to use non-car based forms of transport and Forum Members were encouraged to have an active role in the LTP process. The Planning and Transport Department at the Council would send out a feedback questionnaire on the LTP and would welcome feedback from Forum Members.

(Action: All)

The LTP3 would need to be in place by April 2011. LTP’s would usually need to replaced every five years but the LTP3 would stand for a longer period until 2026 to stand alongside regional guidance. The LTP had previously been a bidding document but the LTP3 would be a more strategic document. Matt Lunn, Planning Assistant, would be co-ordinating work on the LTP3 and would circulate the feedback questionnaire to Forum Members regarding the consultation.
