Residents and businesses are being given the chance to share their views on a plan that will shape the future of transport in Preston and the local area.

Blog Preston reported on the Highways and Transport Master Plan for Central Lancashire back in December: Big plans for the future of transport in Preston and Central Lancashire.

The plans contain the county council’s ideas for much needed transport infrastructure to unlock planned housing and new jobs in the area and make sure predicted increases in traffic don’t cause gridlock on our roads.
