Conclusion
We welcome the Department’s acceleration of safety improvements to all-lane running motorways and acknowledge that the current Secretary of State for Transport and Minister for Roads have, upon their appointment, taken steps to address safety and delivery failures on all-lane running motorways. However, it is regrettable that the Government should find itself in this position. Safety risks on all- lane running motorways, such as those raised by the Transport Committee in 2016, should have been addressed before those motorways were rolled out.
