<p>As set out in the Industrial Strategy, transport infrastructure investment is vital
to support businesses right across the country, including in manufacturing. We support
businesses through our roads, rail and local transport investment, and delivery of
major projects like HS2. For example, HS2 already supports 9,000 jobs, and its innovative
approach to construction includes looking at opportunities for off-site manufacture,
such as Temporary Modular Bridges.</p><p> </p><p>DfT also supports manufacturing through
its procurement, and has adopted the Procuring for Growth Balanced Scorecard to help
ensure major government procurements have a positive impact on economic growth, as
well as best value for the taxpayer.</p><p> </p>
