The Government’s Road Safety Strategy sets a target of delivering a 65% reduction in deaths and serious injuries on UK roads by 2035, but and are we prepared to make the tough, and sometimes unpopular, decisions required to get there? In today’s Highways Voices we talk about how to turn an ambitious national road safety strategy into practical, funded, and deliverable action. Our guest is Dr Suzy Charman, Executive Director at the Road Safety Foundation, to explore where policy, infrastructure, speed management, and data-led decision making must change if safety outcomes are genuinely to improve, rather than simply be promise. Subscribe to Highways Voices free on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Google Podcasts or Pocket Casts and never miss an episode! You’ll get a clear understanding of why a proactive, safe-system approach to road infrastructure and speed management is essential to meeting long-term casualty reduction targets. There’s also an insight into where investment in technology, data integration, and standards reform can deliver the greatest safety and economic returns, and you’ll hear her practical perspectives on how national strategy, local authority delivery, and industry expertise can align to move beyond consultation into measurable impact. Highways Voices is brought to you with our partners the Transport Technology Forum, LCRIG, ADEPT and ITS UK. (Picture – DfT)
