The DfT seeks freight sector views on major road improvement schemes

Industry News

18 December 2025/Categories: Industry News, Freight Forwarding, Logistics & Supply Chain


The Department for Transport (DfT), with Arup, AECOM and Oxera, is researching how major road improvements have affected the freight and logistics sector from an economic perspective. We are seeking input from operators and freight related businesses on three key schemes specifically:

  • A14 – Cambridge to Huntingdon bypass (2020)
  • A13/M25 Junction 30 Congestion Relief (2017)
  • M62 – TransPennine Smart Motorway (series of improvements since 2013)

If your operations are affected by one of those three roads or schemes, we invite you to:

  1. Take a short 15–30-minute interview via Teams to share how these improvements have affected your operations, such as travel times, delivery patterns, fleet or warehouse decisions. Interviews are voluntary, informal, and anonymised.
  2. Complete a very brief survey on operational, supply chain, and land-use impacts.

Your insights will help shape future infrastructure planning for the freight sector.
