An increase in the number of cars and light goods vehicles on our roads – the latter caused by the explosive growth in e-commerce – has resulted in greater congestion than ever before.
This, of course, means that accident and traffic black spots have become part of everyday life, causing problems to motorists and the road network around us. The Highways Agency is responsible for managing, maintaining and improving the strategic road network and focuses on alleviating traffic congestion and improving road safety. Alongside the work that we deliver for the Highways Agency and their contractors and consultants, we also undertake a significant amount of works for the Local Authorities, Consulting Engineers and Contractors that keep our local road network alive.
