New targets will shine spotlight on 'A' roads

摘要

A major consultation exercise is currently under way following the publication of A Safer Way: Consultation on Making Britain's Roads the Safest in the World by Transport Minister Jim Fitzpatrick in April. The document includes a new target to cut road deaths by one third by 2020, to halve the number of child deaths and serious injuries on the roads and to halve the rate of road death and serious injury to pedestrians and cyclists per kilometre travelled.
