Highways Agency.

Quote:
The Highways Agency is an executive agency, part of the Department for Transport in England.
The Highways Agency will become a publicly owned corporation. This transformation is expected to be complete before the next general election in May 2015.
Proposals for setting up the Highways Agency as a new government-owned company responsible for operating, managing and improving the strategic road network.

The main aims of the changes are to:-
give the road operator the freedom to manage the day-to-day operation of the roads without unnecessary interference from central government, while remaining fully accountable for the state of the network
provide greater certainty and flexibility of funding, and stability over delivery requirements, to allow the operator and the supply chain to plan ahead and deliver more efficiently
improve accountability and transparency for road users and the wider public about what the road operator is delivering and how it is performing
