<p>National Highways are monitored against a performance indicator in the performance
specification for the current Road Investment Strategy 2 (RIS2). This measures the
percentage of the Strategic Road Network where litter cleansing is managed by National
Highways which is either free of litter, refuse and detritus, or predominately free
apart from some small items, in line with the Code of Practice on Litter and Refuse,
published by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs. As part of developing
the third Road Investment Strategy (RIS3), the Department for Transport is continuing
to explore potential metrics for inclusion in the RIS3 performance specification,
as was well as considering improvements to existing metrics, such as litter.</p><p>
