County Durham Transport Partnership Forum

This strategic level forum meets four times a year and takes on the role of a 'critical friend' for the development and implementation of the local transport plan. The membership is drawn from organisations with transport-related interests and includes those promoting cycling, walking, disabled access and rail improvements as well as bus and airport operators, district and parish councils, the Highways Agency, Network Rail, regional government and the local primary care trust.


Any organisations with an interest in improving transport in County Durham are very welcome to participate in the Forum and can find out more before registering their interest by emailing the LTP Core Team.
