Be in the room as TfSE sets out its new Strategic Investment Plan in Guildford on 5 July

Transport for the South East will be setting out its new blueprint for future investment in strategic transport infrastructure across the South East for the next thirty years at a free to attend public consultation event in Guildford on 5 July.

Coinciding with the launch of its draft Strategic Investment Plan (SIP), the event is an opportunity to get the low down on the plan, its transformational potential and how you can get involved in the consultation.

 

The £45 billion plan is the culmination of five years of technical work, stakeholder engagement and institutional development. It sets out the steps to decarbonise the transport system across the region, level-up left-behind communities and facilitate sustainable economic growth across the South East.

 

Speakers include:

 

  • Baroness Vere, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department for Transport

  • Cllr Keith Glazier, chair, Transport for the South East; Leader, East Sussex County Council

  • Rupert Clubb, Lead Officer, Transport for the South East

Rupert Clubb, lead officer for Transport for the South East says, “Collectively we know a better transport network can affect profound change – connecting people with jobs and training, helping businesses reach markets, bringing family and friends closer together. It can unlock new housing and jobs and help cut carbon emissions.

 

“That’s why investing in transport is not an end in itself. It is an investment in people, in business, in our environment and our shared future. Together we’re dedicated to creating an integrated and sustainable transport system that makes the South East more productive, competitive, protects our natural environment and improves quality of life.”
