The Nottingham local transport plan strategy 2011 – 2026 is 15 year plan for Nottingham’s transport networks. An integrated and good quality transport system consisting of buses, trams, trains, cycling and walking networks and roads is essential to managing congestion, reducing negative impacts upon the environment and improving health and quality of life. A connected transport system is also vital to raising aspirations of our local residents helping them to get to their places of study or work.
