Partnership working

The TfSH partnership

Transport for South Hampshire (TfSH) is a partnership led by the three highway authorities in the South Hampshire sub-region: Hampshire County Council, Portsmouth City Council and Southampton City Council. The voting members on TfSH's Joint Committee are the executive members for environment and transport representing these three authorities.

TfSH and PUSH
