The Transportation Plan was a plan for strategic bombing during World War II that targeted bridges, rail centres, including marshalling yards and repair shops. The plan was based on "Tedder's rail plan" and the "OVERLORD air plan" ("Leigh-Mallory's plan"), The plan was devised by Professor Solly Zuckermann, an advisor to the Air Ministry, to destroy transportation in Occupied France during the "preparatory period" for Operation Overlord so Germany would be unable to respond effectively to the invasion. The air campaign crippled the German rail networks in France and played a crucial role in disrupting German reinforcements to the invasion area.
