We made considerable progress in implementing the Local Transport Plan (LTP) during 2003–04 and carried out over 400 transport schemes, including:
- 2 bus priority schemes
- 47 road crossings
- 11 local road schemes
- 214 maintenance schemes
- 40 bus infrastructure schemes
- 17 local safety schemes
- 10 travel plans
- 22 cycling schemes
- 29 traffic calming and traffic management schemes.
We made excellent progress towards achieving both the national core transport targets and the local East Sussex targets. Seven out of nine of the national core targets and 24 out of 27 of the local targets were on track to be achieved. We were also on track to meet the national road accident reduction targets early.
Our LTP has also been improved through the development of an updated Road hierarchy review, new strategies for Freight and School Travel Plans, new supplementary planning guidance on developer contributions, and a new local area transport strategy for Heathfield.
We also started work on developing the Local Transport Plan 2 (2006–2011).
