Resilience, Efficiency and Carbon Steering Group

The Carbon Steering Group’s remit has been expanded to include a greater emphasis on resilience and efficiency, while ensuring carbon continues to play a key role. In light of this, the group’s new title is the Resilience, Efficiency and Carbon Steering Group (RECSG).

Keeping member authorities informed about developments in the highways sector, and providing a means of sharing best practice, is a vital part of this.

The purpose of the RECSG is to provide a focus for MHA+ on all issues around resilience, efficiency and carbon reduction in the highways sector.

Our work includes making sure members are aware of work being completed by government and other organisations, such as the Future Highways Research Group (FHRG), the Local Government Association (LGA) and the Association of Directors of Environment, Economy, Planning and Transport (ADEPT). The group also finds and shares examples of good practice and innovation in these key areas of the sector.

MHA+ has a clear overview of the industry’s key cross-cutting themes, resilience, efficiency and carbon, social value, and digital, through its three Thematic Groups.

If you want more information about the Thematic Groups, or would like to contribute, contact MHA+ support: Ian Bamforth (ian.bamforth@leics.gov.uk) or Kay Smith (kay.a.smith@leics.gov.uk).
