The Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority has started its public consultation on its latest  Local Transport and Connectivity Plan (LTCP) is being held over the next four weeks. 

As part of the LTCP, its residents can now have their say on a proposed updated transport plan. 

Mayor Dr Nik Johnson said: “As we develop our renewed plan, we need to hear directly from the people which use our transport network.” 

The public can also highlight transport challenges and opportunities for improvement in their area as part of the developing LTCP. 

The LTCP, which will update the current local transport plan, aims to meet challenges including on public health, the environment, the impact of Covid-19 and access to jobs and education. ADVERTISING

As part of the plan, it will seek ways that digital infrastructure can be improved to support new ways of living for residents, reports the Cambs Times.

A Combined Authority spokesperson said the plan is being revamped because of “significant changes and developments in transport locally and nationally”. 

Dr Johnson said: “Our public health, our impact on climate change, regional inequalities, growth and the economy are all impacted by transport.  We need to make sure the LTCP is ready to meet the major challenges we face now and in the future. What people say will make a difference to our transport future, so I encourage everyone to take part.” 

Dr Johnson added: “As we develop our renewed plan, we need to hear directly from the people which use our transport network.”
