Project location & overview:
Transport for Norwich is a programme of work to improve accessibility by all forms of transport around the city. The previous Norwich Area Transportation Strategy was adopted in 2004 and provided a strategic view to 2021. The strategy supports the county council’s pledge to achieve net zero carbon by 2030, which councillors adopted as part of the authority’s Environmental Policy in November 2019.
During 2021, Greyfriars Project Management was appointed to support the Transport for Norwich Strategy review with the goal of Norfolk County Council Cabinet approving a new, Public Consultation lead strategy at December 2021 Cabinet meeting.
