A New Deal for Trunk Roads in England
A New Deal for Trunk Roads in England was a response by the United Kingdom Government's Department for Transport to A New Deal for Transport: Better for everyone - a report that reviewed the government's strategic roads programme, based on criteria of accessibility, safety, economy, environment and integration.[1]
The recommendations made in the response were:
- To move the Highways Agency in a new direction.
- To create a core network of routes of national importance.
- To improve maintenance, use and planning arrangements for trunk roads.
- To create dedicated budgets to address noise pollution and road safety.
- To create a targeted programme of large-scale improvements to the road system.[1]
