The West of England Partnership's vision to improve transport across the region

Joint Local Transport Plan 3

 The Joint Local Transport Plan 3 (JLTP3) has been published Read it in full here  JLTP3 Front Cover March 2011

The Joint Transport Executive Committee on 10 December 2010 approved the final draft strategy of the JLTP3 and recommended its adoption to the four Councils. 

It was then approved by:

  • South Gloucestershire Council on 15 December 2010
  • Bristol City Council on 18 January 2011
  • North Somerset Council on 18 January 2011
  • Bath and North East Somerset Council on 20 January 2011    

Delivery Plan and Indicators

Due to uncertainty over funding a one year indicative Delivery Plan for 2011/12 was produced for March 2011.  A full three year Delivery Plan 2012/13 to 2014/15 will be produced by autumn 2011. As with the Delivery Plan, uncertainty over funding means it has not been possible to set indicators.  Chapter 12 in the JLTP3 sets out a possible range of indicators.  It is anticipated that indicators and targets will be included in the three year Delivery Plan, autumn 2011. 

Supplementary Documents

The supplementary documents cover key transport elements of the JLTP3 Strategy in more detail.  Minor updates have been made to these documents but they remain in draft format as working documents only.  They will be further updated during  2011/12.
