Torbay Council was successful in its submission of a bid (Travel Torbay Regeneration Project) to the Department for Transport for the Local Sustainable Transport Fund.

This will provide an integrated package of measures including a new Ferry Service, Cycle Way and Bus Service to meet with the Ferry. There will then be an complete connection between Brixham and National Rail Services, as well as Torbay Hospital, through Torquay Harbour and Town Centre. This new infrastructure will be accompanied by a package of supporting measures including harbour infrastructure, travel planning, real time information and work hubs.

The document can be found in the Related Documents below.

The date for the publication of the “Invitation to Tender” for the Ferry Service is still being finalised. However, it is anticipated that this will be in the near future.

The tender process for the Bus will follow that of the Ferry in order to ensure that the services are integrated. Plans are also progressing for the implementation of the Cycle Way.
