| 摘要： | National Highways said that the LTC will 'help the country on the road to net zero', which might make even the most hardened of road enthusiasts raise an eyebrow, to say the least. However, the government-owned company argues that its impact will go beyond the scheme itself, as the project's executive director, Matt Palmer, has put it, to 'push the boundaries in construction and show how we and other large infrastructure projects can help the UK reach net zero'. National Highways says the LTC will be the first major UK infrastructure project to use procurement to reduce carbon and will work with partners, from major engineering companies to small businesses and universities, 'to identify, test and scale-up innovative ways of building and maintaining low carbon infrastructure'. National Highways has pledged that the project will only consider carbon offsetting to address any residual emissions after seeking to reduce emissions themselves. With its decarbonisation plan, published last summer, aiming to deliver net zero road maintenance and construction by 204-0, the government-owned company has stressed that it expects its supply chain to do a lot of the heavy lifting. |
