Outside body

The Transport Committee, as a joint committee of the ten Greater Manchester district councils (‘the Constituent Councils’), the GMCA and the Mayor, brings together the principal local transport decision-making bodies.

The primary role of the Transport Committee is not to replicate strategic decision making functions, but to ensure that through its work, those bodies are able to make informed and co-ordinated decisions by being fully informed about the operation and performance of the transport system, its individual modes and the infrastructure it relies on, including the Key Route Network.
