About LEPT

The London European Partnership for Transport (LEPT) was established in 2006 as a new partnership to coordinate, disseminate and promote the sustainable transport and mobility agenda for London and London boroughs in Europe.

Our ultimate aim is to promote, on a London and European level, the best interests of all 33 London boroughs and their activities within the London transport strategy. This we do through regular personal communication with our borough membership.

One of LEPT’s main roles is to identify, bid for and manage EU transport and mobility projects involving London boroughs which support their local priorities as well as fitting into the current mayor’s Transport Strategy.

The work of LEPT has three main strands:

  • Best practice personal exchange and information dissemination as a two-way process between London boroughs and European cities.
  • Increased development, participation in, and management of EU projects. 
  • Active participation in EU decision making process for transport policy and legislation

LEPT's key objectives are to:

  • Ensure a coordinated approach to London borough interest and activities in European project work
  • Provide an efficient two-way communication process between all relevant stakeholders in London and Europe
  • Provide an effective management structure that allows boroughs to maintain their individual interests and issues whilst benefiting from an overarching objective to promote London within the EU
  • Coordinate bids for funding through the appropriate bidding processes, on both a local or national level and a European level
