SEStran

SEStran, the South East of Scotland Transport Partnership, is the statutory Regional Transport Partnership for a region that includes the City of Edinburgh, Clackmannanshire, East Lothian, Falkirk, Fife, Midlothian, the Scottish Borders and West Lothian. It provides strategic direction for transport across the area through the South East of Scotland Regional Transport Strategy, which sets a framework for regional priorities and a long-term vision for how transport can benefit everyone.

SEStran develops and supports projects addressing a range of transport needs. Its work includes a Regional Bus Strategy, SEStransit, Transport to Health, Transport to Employment, Real Time Passenger Information and Thistle Assistance. Through its People and Place programme, the partnership also offers community grants and shares case studies. It publishes information about its projects, strategy and meetings, and works with local authorities and other stakeholders across the region. The partnership’s activities focus on improving connections and access to essential destinations, including work and healthcare, while contributing to the broader vision for South East Scotland.
