Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Combined Authority
Our role
Cavendish supported the Combined Authority in developing and delivering a statutory consultation programme for the LTCP between 2021 and 2023.
We designed and delivered an integrated engagement strategy combining stakeholder mapping, consultation delivery, digital engagement and strategic communications to broaden participation and strengthen understanding of the plan.
Alongside 13 in-person consultation events across the region, we developed a dedicated consultation platform, targeted digital campaigns and accessible visual content designed to explain the purpose and benefits of the LTCP in clear and locally relevant terms.
We also led engagement with business, education and healthcare stakeholders, helping build broader institutional understanding and advocacy around the long-term transport strategy.
The challenge
As Cambridgeshire and Peterborough faced growing pressure around housing growth, congestion, connectivity and economic expansion, the Combined Authority needed to develop a long-term transport strategy capable of supporting future growth across the region.
The challenge was not simply consulting on a transport plan, but building understanding and legitimacy around potentially significant long-term changes affecting communities, businesses and local infrastructure priorities.
The Combined Authority needed to engage diverse audiences across the region, demonstrate the practical benefits of the Local Transport & Connectivity Plan (LTCP) and build broader stakeholder support for the long-term direction of travel.
The impact
Our work helped support a successful statutory consultation process for one of the region’s most significant long-term infrastructure and connectivity strategies.
The programme broadened engagement across diverse and harder-to-reach audiences while helping strengthen public understanding of the role transport investment would play in supporting future housing, connectivity and economic growth across the region.
The campaign also helped build stronger stakeholder alignment around the long-term direction of transport and infrastructure policy across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough.
