Transport East are launching our first Rural Mobility Survey. This survey will reveal a wider picture of the connectivity challenges and opportunities in their region as well as understanding the baseline for transport in rural areas.

All Town and Parish Councils in Essex, Norfolk and Suffolk are requested to complete the survey. The survey will run for a period of 6 weeks until 16th December, just prior to Christmas break.

In terms of responding, they would like just one response from each Parish, if you or another member of your Parish Council could respond on behalf of your community this would be much appreciated.

The survey is now live and can be filled out here

A summary of the survey questions can be downloaded here for ease and if you require a paper copy or have any queries or difficulties with the survey, please contact transporteast@suffolk.gov.uk
