Midlands Connect researches, develops and recommends major transport projects which provide the biggest possible economic and social benefits for the Midlands and the rest of the UK. These initiatives will create more capacity for passengers and freight on the Midlands’ roads and railways. As the transport arm of the Midlands Engine, we work with local authorities, LEPs and Chambers of Commerce, as well as Highways England, Network Rail and the Midlands’ two international airports, to ensure national transport projects benefit the Midlands and Midlands projects benefit the nation.
