  • Transforming our local communities through the development of 'Liveable Neighbourhoods':
  • Developing Mass Transit options for the city;
  • Building on our success as Cycling City to further develop and implement a world class walking and cycling network in the city;
  • Making school journeys safer and increasing walking and cycling by implementing School Streets;
  • Trialling and testing new transport technologies through our 'Future Transport Zones' programme of work.

    Bristol sits within a strong economic area, working with its neighbouring cities and towns to maximise economic growth through the West of England Combined Authority, West of England Local Enterprise Partnership and Western Gateway.

    An exciting full-time opportunity exists for two experienced and motivated traffic management professionals to join the City Transport Services as 'Technical Lead – Traffic Management Officers'.
