This toolkit has been published is designed to help local highway authorities navigate local government reorganisation (LGR). Developed by the Association of Directors of Environment, Economy, Planning and Transport (ADEPT) in partnership with Local Partnerships, the Navigating Highways Services through Local Government Reorganisation Toolkit helps authorities navigate the highway challenges associated with LGR.

Drawing on work by Local Partnerships - a public sector delivery partner supporting councils through complex transformation programmes - alongside input from ADEPT members, the toolkit addresses the key highway challenges associated with LGR. 

As new unitary authorities are established and boundaries redrawn, the toolkit provides practical step-by-step guidance and checklists and is designed to help senior leaders and officers ensure continuity of service, while also setting a clear direction for long-term harmonisation, efficiency and transformation.

The toolkit is hosted on the Local Partnerships website here: https://localpartnerships.gov.uk/highways-lgr-toolkit
