In response to the new UK Infrastructure Pipeline, Sam Gould, director of policy and external affairs at the Institution of Civil Engineers, said:
“The ICE has promoted the importance of an up-to-date, credible project pipeline for some time, so NISTA's publication of the new Infrastructure Pipeline is a welcome step forward.
“Having an agreed list of projects provides essential clarity for the industry to plan – not just for delivery, but to upskill workers and attract necessary finance.
“The commitment from NISTA to regularly update the Pipeline with insights and data from across industry is also positive, and the ICE looks forward to working with NISTA to refine and develop this Pipeline.
"This joined-up, systematic approach is what’s needed to plan for and deliver the infrastructure the UK needs."
