Rural and Community Transport

Devon Rural Transport Partnership

devon rural transport partnership logo

The Devon Rural Transport Partnership (DRTP) was launched in 1999 to investigate and address rural transport issues in Devon. The Partnership is made up of over 30 voluntary, community and statutory agencies that all have an interest in improving access to services within the county.

Support is given to existing voluntary and community transport groups and to local communities wanting to address the transport needs in their area. This can include help with questionnaire design and identifying the most appropriate transport solutions, as well as advice on applying for funding and the practicalities of setting up new transport projects.

The Partnership also works at a strategic level to raise the profile of transport issues. This includes encouraging organisations to think about transport and access issues when planning new services. The Partnership looks at the provision of services on a county wide basis and tries to ensure that there is no duplication, that services are integrated where possible and that the best use is made of existing resources.

If you would like further details about the work of the Partnership, or if you think your community group would like some help with looking at transport issues in your area, please select Devon Rural Transport Partnership.
