Transport for the Future is the Council’s plan for transport investment in the Borough; by itself and by other transport providers.  It is based on evidence including a specially arranged travel needs survey in 2018 and sets out proposals worth over £138m.

A copy of the draft Plan is available to read at www://redcar-cleveland/consultations.

The purpose of this questionnaire is to ask you whether you think the Plan contains the right transport schemes for the future of the Borough.  Your comments will be used to help make sure that the Plan reflects the travel needs of people and businesses in the Borough
