Highways Agency

The Highways Agency is an executive government agency, part of the Department for Transport, in the United Kingdom. The agency has responsibility for maintaining and improving the 8,255km of motorways and trunk roads (main long-distance roads) in England. The agency was created by John Major's government in 1994. Non-trunk 'A' roads, 'B' roads and minor roads are maintained by local authorities and not the Highways Agency. Roads in Scotland and Wales are the responsibility of the Scottish Executive and the Welsh Assembly. Northern Ireland's roads are the responsibility of an executive agency within the Department for Regional Development called the Roads Service. The Highways Agency network is split into 14 operational areas, which are managed and maintained by agents.
