1-1143 TDM Programme - Concrete Roads Replacement and Repair Programme

Description

Highways England's Road Investment Strategy (RIS) 2 sets to invest £300-400 million as part of the National Concrete Roads Programme. The programme aims to repair and renew (for safety and serviceability reasons) 1000 lane km of concrete roads that are reaching the end of their design life. This scale of concrete renewals is larger than anything Highways England have delivered before. During the Programme disruption cannot be avoided but Highways England are committed to minimising it. The use of Travel Demand Management (TDM) could help reducing the impact of the proposed roadworks on customers. Highways England is looking to procure consultancy services under the SPaTS Framework to undertake a preliminary study into the feasibility of using TDM strategies and measures, identify suitable TDM options and produce an outline strategy for implementation of the selected options. Most of the concrete roads are located in the East region and these roads will be the among the first nationally to be repaired or renewed. A national centre of excellence (CoE) team is being established which will lead on innovation and lessons learnt with other regions within Highways England, externally with local authorities and the wider industry. The task will need to work with the CoE team to ensure
