Back in 2020 We asked local people what their priorities were for improving the provision of transport facilities in Ashburton.
The top priorities were for improvements to public transport, cycling and walking plus more low carbon travel.
The most popular projects were reducing the use of cars for school travel, providing electric vehicle charging points, local shopping and improved bus services.
