The strategy, which covers the period from 2025 to 2035, will be used to guide the transport actions and priorities of South Lanarkshire Council. 

It will also be used to influence the actions of a range of partner organisations who deliver aspects of transport within South Lanarkshire. 

You can read the draft strategy and take part in the survey on the council website.

Chair of the council’s Community and Enterprise Resources Committee, Councillor Robert Brown, said: “The Local Transport Strategy is an ambitious and forward-thinking strategy that sets out a strategic vision and objectives, alongside proposals for a ten-year Action Plan.

“It has been prepared following analysis of relevant background information, trends and issues, and public and stakeholder engagement, the purpose of which was to identify the transport problems, issues and opportunities in South Lanarkshire now and in future years.

“The next stage is now perhaps the more important one – it’s the opportunity for you, our residents, to tell us what matters to you and what we should be prioritising now, medium and long-term.

“I would encourage as many people as possible to have their say and take part in the consultation.”

The survey will be open until midnight on Monday 8 December and more information is available from the council website.
