Roads are shared by drivers, pedestrians, cyclists, motorcyclists and other road users. Safer shared spaces rely on awareness, lower speeds and considerate behaviour.

Road safety isnโt just compliance - itโs smart business:
Lower costs โ Fewer collisions mean reduced insurance
Protect your people โ Safer journeys boost morale
Enhance reputation โ A strong safety record wins trust

On #NationalPotholeDay, I've written for @LBC about how we are ending the pothole plague.
Record funding and new traffic light accountability measures means drivers won't have to shell out for costly repairs.๐ณ๏ธ๐

Today I am proud to announce our Road Safety Strategy.
4 people die on our roads every day - thatโs unacceptable.
This Government is taking bold action: cracking down on drink & drug driving, mandating advanced safety tech in vehicles, and investing in safer infrastructure.
