2020: Review of a year not to remember

Local Transport Today has been providing a unique service of news, analysis and comment about everything relating to transport at urban, conurbation, rural and regional levels in Britain for over 30 years.

Old and new copies of LTT

Founded as a magazine in 1989, it quickly became required reading for planners and transport managers in local authorities, transport service providers, consultants and specialist suppliers and all those researching and studying the challenges of providing mobility and accessibility for people and businesses all around the UK.

Over the years, conferences and seminars, online information resources and other networking and knowledge exchange activities - including an annual Local Transport Summit - have been added to the mix.

During the Covid-19 lockdown this year, LTT introduced a regular fortnightly series of online conversations which became must-attend discussions for those tackling the impacts of the pandemic on local transport.

The most recent innovative step has been the launch of a new app, which provides an equivalent to the printed magazine to be viewed on smart devices with the latest user-friendly capability to display all the individual stories and features in large easy-to-read formats by a single tap on a screen. There are also direct links to all featured websites and email addresses mentioned in the magazine.

LTT is part of the Landor LINKS media and information services business, and its content is an important feed to the TransportXtra website, which has a uniquely rich resource about all elements of transport in the UK.
