The UK Government has today published its 10-year Infrastructure Strategy, which aims to deliver stability, investment and national renewal.
Commenting on the announcement, Chris Ball, UK & Ireland President, AtkinsRéalis, said:
"There is much to welcome in today’s Infrastructure Strategy and the certainty provided by a long-term plan backed up by funding and new approaches to secure private finance and streamline planning.
"This is a comprehensive plan for renewal, regeneration and growth: upgrading ageing networks and buildings, strengthening resilience to extreme weather, and delivering the new infrastructure needed to unlock growth across the country. The Infrastructure Strategy reflects the scale and breadth of development needed to enable sustainable growth across the country and AtkinsRéalis is ready to help deliver against the priorities it sets out.
"Across the UK, there are plenty of projects being delivered through new, collaborative approaches and increasing use of data and technology to drive efficiencies and productivity in project delivery which can be adopted throughout the supply chain. Combined with new approaches to place-based growth, there is much opportunity to deliver better outcomes for people, place and communities."
