Dorset and BCP Councils Local Transport Plan Survey
Overview
We’re creating a new Local Transport Plan (LTP) that will guide how people and goods move around Dorset and the Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole (BCP) area from 2026 to 2041.
This joint plan between Dorset Council and BCP Council sets out a long-term vision to make travel easier, safer and more inclusive. The plan looks at how we can improve travel choices, reduce congestion, cut pollution, and make it easier for people to get to work, school, healthcare and leisure. It also supports our goals to tackle climate change, protect the environment, and help our communities thrive.
This new plan helps us:
- Support a growing population
- Respond to climate change
- Reflect how people live and work today
- Make everyday journeys easier and more reliable
- Ensure everyone can access jobs, services and opportunities
Why your views matter
In 2024, we asked for your ideas on what should be included in the plan. Thousands of people took part, and your feedback helped shape this draft. Now we want to know—have we got it right?
Your views are really important. They will help us make sure the final plan reflects what matters most to local people, businesses and communities.
Public consultation on the draft strategy and implementation plan will run from 18 August to 13 October 2025.

After the consultation closes, we’ll review all the feedback and make changes where needed before the plan is finalised in 2026. Once adopted, the plan will help us secure funding and start delivering improvements in your area.
Please take a few minutes to complete the survey and share your thoughts. Your views will help shape the future of transport in your area. Only one response is permitted per person / organisation.
You can request the survey in alternative formats including a printed version or an easy read version. Please telephone 01305 221000 or email ltp@dorsetcouncil.gov.uk for Dorset Council. For BCP council telephone 01202 123456 or email ltp@bcpcouncil.gov.uk.
