East Lothian Local Transport Strategy

Overview

A draft Local Transport Strategy has been produced by East Lothian Council to cover the period from 2018 to 2024. The draft Strategy reflects the key role of transport and outlines plans for ongoing development taking into account the wider changes in East Lothian as detailed in the Local Development Plan. 

As well as the main draft Local Transport Strategy, there are a number of associated Plans which will deliver specific aspects of the overall Strategy - these are: 

• The Road Asset Management Plan 
• The Road Safety Plan 
• The Active Travel Improvement Plan 
• The Parking Management Strategy

You can view the draft Local Transport Strategy, along with the associated Plans under 'Related' below. We have also developed a set of 'Frequently Asked Questions' in relation to each of the Plans which you can also view below.
