We have made commitments in the Future Transport Strategy to achieve 50% emissions reduction by 2030 and net zero emissions by 2050. But effective change won’t happen unless Government and industry work together to evolve the way we procure and embed sustainability into our projects. This page outlines our approach to decarbonising our infrastructure pipeline and how we are working to build circularity in our sector.
A four-year program created to streamline and drive decarbonisation and circularity on transport infrastructure projects through practical changes at the project level.
We have signed a Memorandum of Understanding with National Highways to accelerate our net zero journey through collaboration and knowledge sharing.
We spent 12 months engaging with over 370 industry specialists representing 135 organisations to co-create practical ways to embed sustainability into projects.
