Next steps

Transport Scotland is committed to delivering our vision for a well-adapted transport system in Scotland and will continue to take steps to embed adaptation and resilience across our organisation. Establishing this framework for climate adaptation of the trunk road network marks a significant step towards achieving this vision.

Over the duration of the plan, we will work collaboratively with stakeholders to implement the actions contained within the framework. We will ensure also that TRAP remains responsive to emerging climate risks and technological advancements. The delivery of adaptation measures arising from the recommendations will be continually monitored and evaluated through a framework of indicators to assess effectiveness and drive future improvements. We will also report annually on the progress of the TRAP through the SNAP3 statutory reporting mechanism.
