Business Plan 2012-2013
| Publication type: | Report |
Summary
This year is the first in which the reduction in the Agency’s budget, set out in the Government’s spending review in 2010, takes effect. Over the last 18 months we have been working to reduce the cost of operating, maintaining and improving England’s motorway and trunk road network. We have new ways of working, new specifications, and new contracts in place — all of which mean that we are ready to meet this efficiency challenge.
Our fundamental purpose is to keep road traffic moving without unplanned incident or delay. The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee and subsequent Olympic Games mean that the whole country will depend on our network for personal transport and for delivery of freight. For our staff and our contractors the summer of 2012 presents an enormous test of our capability. We look forward to playing our part, and to keeping England’s roads moving.
