The Department for Transport awarded a contract to the University of Oxford for a single points of failure analysis of the strategic transport network.

The study was initiated following concerns about whether the strategic transport network contains single points of failure, particularly after the South West experienced extreme weather in the winter of 2013-14 that caused significant and simultaneous flooding to major road and rail routes, at times threatening to cut off the region.

The analysis was to rigorously determine the points and routes representing potential single points of failure on the strategic transport network, and the consequences of their failure.

The network in scope comprised the Strategic Road Network, the Trunk Road Network and the UK rail network, and also considered routes serving wider economic needs such as key energy supply routes and mainline commuter routes.

The contract value was AUD 90,944.
