Have your say....

We want to hear your views on the future of transport in Rutland 🚗🚶‍♀️🚲
We've launched a consultation on our draft Local Transport Plan, Moving Rutland Forward, which sets out our long-term vision for transport in the county through to 2036.

The plan covers walking, wheeling and cycling, public transport, roads, parking, road safety, electric vehicle infrastructure, and access to jobs, education, healthcare and other essential services.

It builds on our existing transport strategy, which was first adopted in 2019, and has been updated to reflect changes in national transport policy, local priorities, funding opportunities and new evidence.

This is your chance to tell us whether we've identified the right challenges and priorities, and to raise any other issues we should consider before the plan is finalised.

🗓️ The consultation is open now and runs until 1 October 2026
