The House of Commons Transport Committee has published the findings of an inquiry into how the policies set out in the Action for roads Command Paper will improve the strategic road network (SRN) for all road users, while also improving the environment. It also considered: how the Government’s policy for roads links with planning for other transport modes; the reliability of the forecast for growth in demand for the SRN; how the Government should deal with uncertainty in its forecast; how the reliability and efficiency of travel on the SRN can be improved; the impact of new technology; the mechanisms available for Government to increase investment in strategic roads and attract new investors; good examples from other countries that could be applied in the UK; how the Highways Agency should be reformed to make it the world’s leading highway operator; and the roles Government and the private sector should play to ensure better management of the SRN.
