IS THE ROAD INVESTMENT STRATEGY NEW MONEY FOR ROADS?

摘要

The Strategy sets out how the government-owned company (go-co) that will replace the Highways Agency is to spend the $25bn, five-year investment promised in the 2013 Comprehensive Spending Review. It also sets out a vision for how the network will evolve up to 2040. The strategy will be equivalent to the High Level Output Specification set by the government for Network Rail and will be adopted by the go-co when the Infrastructure Bill goes through Parliament next year.
