The Vision 2030 project was sponsored by the Highways Agency (HA), the Agency within the Department for Transport (DfT) responsible for operating the motorways and trunk roads in England.

The project brief was to consider the development of inter-urban transport in the longer term, to anticipate future needs and requirements, and how they might be met.

In response, the Vision 2030 team have delivered a portfolio of Transport Visions that provides a constructive basis for long-term strategy development. The Visions are subjective rather than objective and are a means of exploring various long-term options that might help the Agency to meet its primary aims.

Vision 2030 has provided an opportunity for the HA to seek views from a wide range of people with a stake in the future of the inter-urban highway network.
