Jonathan Walker, Head of Infrastructure and Planning Policy at Logistics UK, commented on the release of the National Infrastructure Strategy, emphasizing the urgent need for investment in the UK’s infrastructure, which has suffered from neglect. He welcomed the funding for the Lower Thames Crossing and upgrades to aging bridges and tunnels as initial positive steps. However, he stressed the importance of a long-term strategic approach to ensure sustained development and resilience in supply chains, urging the government to collaborate effectively with the logistics sector to realize its growth ambitions.
