Local Transport Strategy

Introduction

Local Transport Strategies set out how local authorities intend to meet national objectives at a local level and detail actions which will achieve local objectives.

The Local Transport Strategy for Clackmannanshire

• outlines the strategy for the Council’s roads and transportation plans for the next five years
• looks to how the roads and transportation system will develop in the short and long term
• acts as support for future roads and transportation improvements
• sets out measures aimed at providing travel choices for all
• ensures that job opportunities are not restricted to only those with access to a car

The Local Transport Strategy 2010 - 2014 is available to download below. A revised Local Transport Strategy is now been prepared and it is anticipated that this draft will be available shortly.  In the interim period the existing strategy for 2010 - 2014 will remain valid for use.

Strategic Environmental Assessment

Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) is a systematic process for identifying, predicting, reporting and mitigating the environmental impacts of certain proposed plans and programmes. The Local Transport Strategy falls under the EU Directive 2001/42/EC and the Environmental Assessment of Plans and Programmes (Scotland) Regulations 2004. Therefore the Local Transport Strategy must be assessed for environmental effects.

The Clackmannanshire Strategic Environmental Assessment reports for the current Local Transport Strategy can be downloaded from this page. Responses from the consultation authorities are also available.
