Roads: Accidents
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps she has taken to help reduce road deaths of (a) cyclists and (b) pedestrians.
Answered by Lilian Greenwood
Government is committed to making our roads safer for all users and as a consequence reducing risks to cyclists and pedestrians.
The new Road Safety Strategy sets an ambitious target to reduce the number of people killed or seriously injured on British roads by 65% by 2035.
This target will focus the efforts of road safety partners across Britain, with measures to improve road design, protect vulnerable road users, and review motoring offences.
