Working with Local Authorities

Government Office Contacts

The nine Government Offices for each English Region work closely with local authorities to determine funding for local transport measures, and to monitor progress in the delivery of Local Transport Plans. They are also responsible for approving and finalising Regional Transport Strategies. In London, much of the transport responsibility has been passed to the Mayor and the Greater London Authority, who produce London’s regional transport strategy along with Transport for London (TfL) and allocate funds to London Boroughs for their Local Implementation Plans. The Government Office for London is responsible for funding the Mayor and TfL and a number of other statutory functions. Web links and contact details for each of the Government Office Transport Teams are as follows:

Government Office for the East Midland 

Government Office for the East of England

Government Office for London

Government Office for the North East

Government Office for the North West

Government Office for the South East

Government Office for the South West

Government Office for the West Midlands
