This final report from the Union connectivity review, led by Sir Peter Hendy CBE, makes recommendations that aim to improve transport connectivity across the UK.

Sir Peters primary recommendation is for the establishment of a multi-modal transport network (UKNET).

Additionally, based on evidence submitted to the review, Sir Peter identifies existing transport projects that would support better connectivity and should be considered by the government for future investment.

The recommendations are informed by the governments wider strategic ambitions around levelling up and reaching net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.

The report is available in English, Welsh and Irish Gaelic.

The UK governments response to the Union connectivity review was published on 7 December 2023. It includes priority actions to support UK transport connectivity, including policy changes and the provision of targeted funding to kickstart the development of projects.
