Strategic route
Code of Practice for the Co-ordination of Street Works and Works for Road Purposes and Related Matters HAUC(England) Edition issued by HAUC (England) in September 2020, defines a strategic route as part of: ‘A network of strategic routes across England and Wales identified, using criteria set out by the DfT (Department for Transport) in England and the Welsh Assembly Government in Wales, such routes are aligned to regional and national transport policies and strategies. Most Strategic Routes, which include Motorways and Trunk Roads are managed and maintained by Highways England, Transport for London, the South Wales Trunk Road Agent (SWTRA) and the North & Mid Wales Trunk Road Agent (NMWTRA). Some Strategic Routes, more likely to be termed Primary Route Network are managed and maintained by Local Highway Authorities.’
