Wiltshire Council is inviting residents to find out more about plans for Salisbury’s transport future.

A public drop-in event will take place on Tuesday 21 April at Salisbury City Hall from 12pm to 8pm.

The council is updating its Salisbury Transport Strategy, which was last reviewed in 2018.

The refreshed plan will look at issues including congestion, road safety, public transport and reducing carbon emissions.

It will also explore improvements to walking and cycling routes, bus services and park and ride facilities.

Visitors to the event will be able to view proposals, ask questions and speak directly with the project team.

Martin Smith says public input will help shape a safer and better-connected transport network.

A wider public consultation is expected to begin at the end of May.
