Background:

 

This report set out Transport for the South East’s (TfSE) work in preparing the Strategic Investment Plan (SIP). The SIP was due to be considered at a TfSE Partnership Board meeting in March 2023 before being submitted to Government. It was noted that Medway was one of 16 constituent authorities that would be covered by the SIP.

 

The report explained that the SIP formed the final part of a Transport Strategy and would be the blueprint for £45bn of investment in strategic transport infrastructure over the next 30 years. The SIP provided an overview and policy context before setting out the benefits of investing in the South East and 30 packages of interventions, 20 of which were considered to be most relevant to Medway.
