Funding for your borough
We provide funding to boroughs and local communities for transport improvements in your local area.
Local Implementation Plan (LIP)
The LIP is produced by the London Borough of Sutton and agreed with us. It sets out the details on transport infrastructure changes in a three-year period to support the Mayor's Transport Strategy.
LIP targets for Sutton
Each borough has set targets in their LIP against the Mayor's Transport Strategy outcomes - we track and report on progress against these targets in the LIP3 MTS outcomes borough data pack.
For example, the car ownership in the borough was 93,763 in 2019. The LIP target to reduce car ownership by 2021 is 90,400.
We also work with boroughs to encourage more cycling. We recorded 5,692 daily cycle trips on average starting in Sutton between 2015 and 2018.
More resident and visitor population figures are on the GLA website.
Vision Zero Dashboard: Helping you access collision data
The Vision Zero dashboard is a tool designed to help organisations and members of the public easily access and interpret collision data. By providing this data in a user-friendly format, the dashboard enables users to gain valuable insights into road safety issues in their borough.
