A look back at transport in 2021

As we near the end of another year, we've taken a look back [ [link removed] ]at some of the transport highlights and progress made on a number of exciting projects that will make travelling around the city easier.

Have your say

There's just over a week left to tell us what you think about electric vehicles. We're running two surveys until 31 December 2021.

Take this one [ [link removed] ] if you use an electric vehicle, or this one [ [link removed] ] if you don't - we still want to hear from you.

Your responses will help to shape our future work in this area, and everyone who takes part can enter into a prize draw for a £50 shopping voucher.
