Sutton Local Plan Strategic Transport Assessment

Description

The London Borough of Sutton is preparing a new Local Plan. The plan will feature revised planning policies and be supported by an objective and robust evidence base. A key part of the evidence base will be a Strategic Transport Assessment, which will directly inform the Council’s future housing and economic growth locations, site allocations, and strategic development policies. The Council wishes to commission consultants to undertake a Strategic Transport Assessment, which will principally comprise modelled analysis of the current and future state of the strategic and local road network in Sutton with the aim of understanding the impact on planned residential and economic growth. The analysis and conclusions from the Strategic Transport Assessment will inform the new Sutton Local Plan, which will cover the period from 2024 to 2041. More specifically, the analysis and conclusions will directly inform the decisions on site allocations and criteria to be included within strategic policies. Please refer to the specification in the attachment section on the portal for full details. Keywords: Local Plan, Transport Assessment
