Overview
The Department for Infrastructure, with the assistance of consultants Aecom, is currently preparing a new Transport Plan for the Fermanagh and Omagh District Council (FODC) area called the Fermanagh and Omagh Sub-Regional Transport Plan 2035 (FO SRTP).
The FO SRTP covers local transport issues (active travel, public transport, the local road network and parking etc.) and will set the framework for transport policy and investment decisions up until 2035. The FO SRTP will provide most detail on the main towns of Omagh and Enniskillen. It will also consider local transport issues across the district, where appropriate.
The FO SRTP will focus on improving the sustainability of the transport system by supporting people to choose the most sustainable mode of travel for their journey and aims to ensure that the transport network meets the needs of the people and businesses living, working and visiting FODC.
The future development of the Regional Strategic Transport Network (RSTN) is not considered as part of the FO SRTP. This means strategic roads such as the A5 and the railway network are not part of this Plan. These will be considered in the preparation of the Regional Strategic Transport Network Transport Plan 2035, due to be consulted on in late 2024/ early 2025.
The FO SRTP also does not consider Community Transport or Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure. These matters are being considered separately by the Department at a regional level.
More information on the FO SRTP is available on the Departments website [Link].

What happens next
We will consider your views made as part of this engagement exercise as part of the preparation process. The draft FO SRTP alongside associated assessments will be published later in 2024.
