The Department expects Highways England to maximise the availability of traffic lanes and minimise delay as far as possible, and this is reflected in the performance indicators that the Department has set. Highways England are committed to minimising disruption from roadworks and are exploring managing work in different ways to find the best way to achieve this, while also ensuring good value for public money.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3991", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jesse Norman"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Hereford and South Herefordshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Jesse Norman"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-11-19", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-11-19T13:11:45.503Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "27"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-11-09", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Roads: Repairs and Maintenance"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what guidance his Department has issued to Highways England on the permitted length of roadworks in any one stretch.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/318", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for John Spellar"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Warley"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "John Spellar"} ], "uin" : "189549"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1003649", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Transport"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1003649/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The Department for Transport published the outputs of the Transport Energy Model in July 2018 alongside the Road to Zero strategy.<\/p>
<\/p>
The model estimates the average tailpipe emissions of air pollutants, the greenhouse gas emissions and the energy consumption of a range of fuel and powertrain options for cars, vans, buses and heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) over the period to 2050.<\/p>
<\/p>
More information on the development and outputs of the model is available here: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/739462/transport-energy-model.pdf<\/a>.<\/em><\/p> <\/p> <\/p>"}
