The overall aims of Suffolk County Council's transport and streets functions are:

  • to serve Suffolk people and communities, and other users of Suffolk's transport system by providing and maintaining, as far as possible, safe and accessible roads, bridges, pavements and cycleways and street lights, increasing travel safety through schemes, education, training and publicity and undertaking projects to improve safety and sustainability
  • to work in partnership with private sector suppliers and to provide an efficient and cost-effective design, construction and maintenance service
  • to develop a transport strategy for the county and produce local transport plans and annual reports
  • to secure an effective framework of passenger transport services for the whole of Suffolk, in partnership with commercial providers, and making appropriate and efficient use of our own vehicles
