Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the impact of the quality of roads maintenance on (1) the logistics network’s efficiency, (2) the logistics network’s emissions, (3) the efficiency and productivity of UK businesses, and (4) the UK’s trade capacity.

On the Strategic Road Network, the needs of freight and logistics and its customers is considered by National Highways as it prioritises, plans, communicates, and delivers maintenance and renewals on the network. This includes establishing the optimal time to undertake work to minimize the disruption to road users of work on the network and provide corridor-level resilience.
