Investment Plan for Roads 2 (IR2): 2020 to 2025
In an exciting development for the UK's transportation sector, Highways England has been allocated a substantial investment of £27.4 billion over the coming years. This funding, earmarked for specific projects, will play a crucial role in the maintenance, renewal, and enhancement of the country's strategic road network.
Looking further ahead, a strategic vision for the strategic road network in 2050 has been meticulously detailed. This vision serves as a guiding principle for the future development and management of the network, ensuring it remains efficient, safe, and sustainable.
Accompanying this strategic vision is a performance specification, a comprehensive set of metrics and indicators designed to measure the performance of both Highways England and the strategic road network. This specification will enable the continuous monitoring and improvement of the network's performance, ensuring it meets the needs of the UK's growing population and economy.
Meanwhile, in Germany, the German Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure (BMVI) will take charge of investments and operations in the country's strategic road networks from April 2025 to March 2030. The BMVI has allocated a significant budget from the national transport infrastructure plan, though the exact figure has not been explicitly stated. This funding will be distributed according to a detailed investment plan, which outlines how money will be allocated for operations, maintenance, renewals, and enhancements of the road areas.
These investments mark a significant step forward in the modernisation and improvement of the UK and Germany's strategic road networks, ensuring they remain fit for purpose and capable of meeting the demands of the future.
