REACTION: IAM RoadSmart responds to government’s motorway and major road upgrade plans
IAM RoadSmart comments on new motorway and A-road investment plans
William Porter, Policy and Public Affairs Manager at IAM RoadSmart said: “Today’s announcement is a welcome recognition that maintaining and renewing our road network is just as important as building new infrastructure when it comes to road safety. Drivers rely on well-maintained roads for safe journeys, and years of underinvestment have left too many routes in a poor and potentially dangerous condition.
This focus on long-term, preventative maintenance is a positive step, but investment must go hand in hand with measures that improve driver behaviour and road design. A truly effective road network is one that is not only reliable and resilient but consistently supports safer driving and reduces the risk of collisions for everyone using it.”
