The Highway Code – Have your say!

01 March 2021

Highways England has launched a review of the Highway Code to improve road safety on motorways and high-speed roads and wants your views on the proposed changes. The consultation will run for four weeks and closes at 23:59 on 29 March 2021.

The Highway Code is regularly updated to improve safety for all road users.

Highways England is asking for your views on updated safety information for high-speed dual carriageways and motorways.

Proposed changes include updating information on the use of variable speed limits to manage congestion, the use of red X signs to close lanes, and what to do in the event of a breakdown.

You can read full details of the proposed updates, and give your views, on GOV.UK 

Please contact the Regulatory Team if you want any advice on regulatory@backhouses.co.uk.
