Consultation description
We are proposing changes to a circular that explains how National Highways will engage with the planning system. It also gives details on how National Highways will fulfil its remit to be a delivery partner for sustainable economic growth whilst maintaining, managing and operating a safe and efficient strategic road network.
These changes:
- strengthen environmental policies in response to the transport decarbonisation plan and the drive towards zero emission transport
- implement policy to reflect a recent written ministerial statement about lorry parking and a new section on freight facilities
- clarify policy in order to address legal issues
- remove or amend out of date material
