Transform responds to SPT’s ‘Case for Change’ consultation

Transform Scotland has published its response to Strathclyde Partnership for Transport’s Regional Transport Strategy ‘Case for Change’ consultation. Transform’s response to the consultation takes the form of a letter sent by Transform’s director Colin Howden.

While welcoming the narrative on the existing situation in the SPT area as being “informative and indeed interesting”, we find that there is a “lack of assessment of whether or not the previous [Strategy] has had any impact” on transport trends, and lacks a “vision of where we want to go and a clear route map of how we will get there”.
