Consultation has concluded


The Council is reviewing its current Passenger Transport Strategy, published in 2014, which you can view in the link in the documents section of this page.


The updated Passenger Transport Strategy, which will apply from 2025 to 2035, aims to set out the Council’s objectives for Aberdeenshire passenger transport services and incorporates the Council’s general policies for public and other passenger transport. The document entitled Draft Passenger Transport Strategy 2025 will form the basis of the new strategy document.

We are seeking the views of individuals and organisations on the draft outcomes, general objectives and transport objectives proposed in the draft strategy document.

We are also seeking feedback on the proposed key high-level tasks to be undertaken during the lifetime of the new strategy, as explained in the Proposed Action Plan which you can view on this page.

Should you wish, you can also provide comments about any of the Policies which are included in the Draft Passenger Transport Strategy 2025 and which are also listed separately in the documents section of this page.

The survey took approximately 15 minutes to complete.

Paper copies of the survey could be printed at any public library within the Aberdeenshire Council area.

The consultation closed at midnight on Sunday 1st September 2024.

    The responses to the Passenger Transport Strategy 2025 survey were considered when we further developed the wording of the draft strategy and the policies contained within the strategy. We sought feedback on the passenger transport policies from the Council’s six Area Committees in November 2024.

    Approval for the 2025 Strategy is sought from the Council’s Infrastructure Services Committee at its meeting on 13 March 2025. The strategy document that is being considered can be viewed by clicking here.

    Background information used in forming the strategy document is included in two separate documents. You can view Supplementary Paper 1: Connectivity Analysis by clicking here and Supplementary Paper 2: Views of the Aberdeenshire Public by clicking here.
