(2)        Presentation – Local Transport Plan: Future Challenges and Opportunities

Chris Maddocks, Transport Planning Manager, gave a presentation on the Local Transport Plan (LTP): Future Challenges and Opportunities.  The presentation started by providing some background in terms of the current plan and covered existing travel patterns in Reading and the wider area which would be key to consider when developing the new plan, key challenges and opportunities that would be faced and would need to be addressed when producing the new plan and the next steps.  The LTP provided the basis for investment within the Borough for transport schemes and would set the strategy for transport to, from and in the Borough.

A copy of the presentation slides was made available on the Reading Borough Council website.

Resolved -      That the presentation be noted.
