Local Transport Plan

8.3 The Local Transport Plan (LTP) for Suffolk provides the foundation for investment in transport infrastructure. Many of the proposals in the LTP are not land use policies and it is therefore inappropriate for them to be reproduced in this Local Plan. However, the LTP's aim to provide public transport, cycle routes and other measures to encourage a switch away from the private car will be an important consideration when proposals for new development are looked at. Where more detailed Local Action Plans covering parts of the borough are prepared as part of the Local Transport Plan, the Borough Council will adopt them as Supplementary Planning Documents. The aims, objectives and policies of the Suffolk Local Transport Plan will be a material consideration in the determination of planning applications.
