Results - Let's Talk Money 2023

A big thank you to everyone who took part in the Let’s Talk Transport survey during summer last year - 4817 surveys were completed by residents of North Yorkshire. You can find out more about the results on our <a href="https://letstalkny.commonplace.is/en-GB/proposals/results-transport/step1">Commonplace Let&#39;s Talk Transport results page</a>. <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/commonplace-digital-limited/image/upload/v1707475987/projects/letstalkny/8850824e-71e1-40bd-84ef-be4ad1e76077.png" /> You told us about your transport habits and how you might like to travel in future, to help inform the next Local Transport Plan. You can read a summary of the first stage of the engagement on the <a href="https://www.northyorks.gov.uk/your-council/consultations-and-engagement/lets-talk" target="_blank">North Yorkshire Council website</a>. This report outlines what you told us as part of this initial conversation: • There are low levels of satisfaction with the current transport system in North Yorkshire • Availability and reliability of travel, affordability, road safety and impact of transport on climate changes are of most concern • Measures to encourage more use of public transport and more walking and cycling, and traffic and highway infrastructure are seen as being most effective in tackling transport issues • There are important differences in results and feedback across the county. The information you provided will help shape the first draft of the strategic transport plan, which will then be shared as part of a formal consultation. <a data-uw-rm-color-contrast="prs" href="https://letstalkny.commonplace.is/en-GB/proposals/survey-food/step1" style="text-decoration: none; background-color: #F580A9; color: black; font-size: 20px; padding: 15px 20px; border-radius: 10px; box-shadow: 1px 3px 5px rgb(0 0 0 / 0.2);" target="_blank">Take our latest survey</a>

Results - Let's Talk Transport

From 1 April 2023, North Yorkshire Council will replace the eight county, district and borough councils in North Yorkshire to deliver all the public services your local council currently provides. All eight councils are already working together to make sure that the services you value, like waste collection and recycling, highways and planning, continue as usual.

Between now and December we’ll be holding North Yorkshire’s biggest countywide conversation, ‘Let’s Talk’, asking you how you’d like to work with the new council. The first topic of conversation is ‘Let’s Talk Local’, which focuses on what’s important to you in your local area, whether that’s education, affordable housing or public transport, followed by conversations about the budget and proposed devolution deal later in the autumn.
