Highways & Transport

Highways budgets are facing significant cuts and Councils want to know how the private sector can help

The country’s Highways are being used more than ever and many Local Authorities describe their road networks as being in a state of “managed decline”.

With responsibility for 98% of our roads, Councils require investment to reverse this decline and are turning to the private sector for efficient management of their highways.

The private sector turns to Porge for highly reliable market intelligence

Porge’s subscribers can quickly identify Councils whose highways maintenance contracts are due for renewal, along with information about the costs and performance of current suppliers.
