Hello and thanks for tuning into The Interchange Podcast produced in association with Arcadis and hosted by independent broadcaster, Ayo Abbas. Today we are going client side with our guest Adam Simmons, Director Strategic Planning & Analysis at National Highways.

Our discussions included:

• the impact moving from a 1-year to 5-year investment cycle had on National Highways strategy.
• how integrated delivery must focus on giving customers choice and a positive experience
• the work being done to deliver the new Road Investment Strategy which will run from 2025 - 2030
• the importance of making small incremental changes on the road to achieving integrated transport delivery improvements
• the role of data as a powerful tool in unlocking passenger choice
• why we mustn’t forget the human factor and how infrastructure impacts our emotions.

The Interchange Podcast interviews leading changemakers and thinkers about how integrated transport infrastructure is the solution to achieving a more effective and decarbonised transport network.
