Peninsula Transport
“Our vision is to reshape transport across the peninsula—driving a thriving society and economy while protecting and enhancing our unique natural environment.”
Peninsula Transport Sub national transport body is a collaborative transport partnership, uniting the five lead authorities of Cornwall, Devon, Plymouth, Somerset, and Torbay to unlock the region’s full economic potential.
Working alongside co-opted members and key partners from both the public and private sectors, we set the strategic transport priorities that will shape the peninsula’s future.
The South West peninsula is a fantastic place to live and work, and great transport is at the heart of what makes it thrive. Our vision is to create a smarter, cleaner, and more resilient transport network—one that strengthens connections, supports growth, and enhances quality of life across the region.
