The Office of Rail and Road (ORR) awarded a contract to Nichols for consultancy support to review Highways England's capital delivery plan and assess the company's evidence on whether the plan is deliverable and affordable.

The ORR independently monitors Highways England's management of the motorways and main A roads in England, including investigating, publishing reports, and advising the Secretary of State on whether and at what cost it is meeting the objectives of the Road Investment Strategy (RIS).

Highways England is required to progress delivery of 112 major improvement schemes over the first Road Period (RP1), April 2015 - March 2020, with details set out in the Investment Plan.

During 2016-17, Highways England revised its capital investment delivery plan for major schemes, focusing on scope, value for money, and impact on road user experience, referred to as optimisation of the portfolio.

The ORR carried out a review of a sample of major schemes during 2016-17 and published findings and recommendations in July 2017, identifying areas of good practice and opportunities for improvement.

The contract, valued at £79,381, provided additional resource to support the ORR's review of the capital plan and assessment of its deliverability and affordability.
