The Project

The M5 South of jct 21 to jct 31 Route Management Strategy report published in March 2002 sets out a 10 year Route Management Plan and Three Year Route Action Plan for this section of the M5 Motorway from Weston-super-Mare to Exeter.

This Route Management Strategy has been prepared by W.S. Atkins, in accordance with the Highways Agency 'Route Management Strategy Guidance October 2000' (RMS Guidance), for the M5 motorway south of junction 21 to the end of the motorway at junction 31. It comprises a Ten Year Route Management Plan and Three Year Route Action Plan.

The preparation for the Route Management Strategy included a seminar for stakeholders, two Value Management Workshops and a period of public consultation. Reports have been prepared describing each of these events.

This Route Management Strategy has been developed within a policy framework shaped by the Government's Ten Year Transport Plan, the Highways Agency Strategic Plans and Regional Planning Guidance. Furthermore close communication has been maintained with the development of the London to South Wales and the South West Multi-Modal Study (SWARMMS).
