Improving Our Service

Transport Scotland is committed to continual improvement of its approach to roads asset management to ensure we remain responsive, resilient, and aligned with the Scottish Government’s priorities. Our Asset Management Improvement Programme (AMIP) identifies how we can continue to improve, reflects our changing capabilities and priorities, and implements lessons learned.

The Roads Delivery Directorate’s Senior Management Team is responsible for setting and periodically reviewing the Policy, Strategy, the RAMP, our AM objectives and the AMIP. During the next few years, our focus areas will include:

Climate Adaptation and Resilience

Identifying where we can improve the resilience of our assets to climate change and investing in the best-value interventions to keep the network available.

Net Zero

Establishing innovative ways to further reduce the carbon emissions of our interventions and encourage active travel in our communities.

Asset Management Data

Building on our improvements to asset information to ensure we hold current and accurate data about assets performance.

Asset Management Performance System (AMPS)

Continuing to enhance our award-winning asset management information system to improve its analytical and reporting capabilities.

Asset Management Decision-Making

Using our improved data and AMPS to facilitate improved asset management decision-making, supporting both Transport Scotland staff and our supply chain in delivering effective, value-for-money choices.
