Transport actions groups (TAGs) exist to provide input from local residents and visitors to private and public transport providers and Councils, covering all forms of mobility - walking, cycling, horse riding, as well as public transport.
TAGs provide input based on local knowledge and experience of users and potential users to try to ensure that changes are made in the interests of people, whilst providing value for money and supporting the drive to lower carbon emissions.
