With safety our number one priority at National Highways, they aim to at least halve the number of people killed or seriously injured on their roads by the end of 2025, with a longer-term goal of achieving a zero-harm network. To support this vision and help road users to stay – and feel – safe on our road network, their Journey Planning road safety campaign encourages drivers to plan in advance, including all necessary vehicle checks as well as factoring in rest stops before setting off on any long or significant journey during the summer season/holidays.
We urge readers to become involve in this campaign.
The key messages are for all before embarking on any long journey:
Top-up fuel/battery, oil and screen-wash.
Rest and plan stops every 2 hours.
Inspect tyre pressure and tread.
Prepare for all weather conditions.
The Summer Toolkit for use by professionals and employers is available here.
