The government has an ongoing challenge to beat congestion and improve the efficiency of the road and rail network.
The UK is a relatively small island so measures to improve its roads or add to its rail lines need to be as efficient as possible, to avoid disruption to its communities.
In December 2013, the government announced measures were being put in place to provide funding for congestion busting local roads such as the M6 Heysham Link Road, improving the M55 and M62 alongside the electrification of a number of railway lines, not to mention the development of HS2.
