The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps she is taking to ensure that measures in the Road Safety Strategy are applied effectively during winter.

Answered by Lilian Greenwood

On 7 January 2026 we published our new Road Safety Strategy, setting out our vision for a safer future on our roads for all. The policy commitments in the Road Safety Strategy will be developed in the usual way, ensuring that thorough consideration is given to all aspects of a policy. This will include consideration of each policy’s effectiveness throughout the year, including during the winter period.
