City Centre Transport Strategy

Overview

The City Centre Transport Strategy (CCTS) has been developed jointly by Manchester City Council, Salford City Council and Transport for Greater Manchester. ​

The strategy’s central aim is for 90 per cent of all trips into the city centre to be made on foot, by cycle or using public transport before 2040 - helping to reduce air pollution and contribute to Manchester’s 2038 target for carbon neutrality. ​

The consultation giving the public their chance to have their say on the plan, is being hosted on Manchester City Council's website and is open until Wednesday 4 November.​
