Road Safety Strategy
PEDESTRIANS HAVE FACED DISPROPORTIONATE RISKS ON OUR ROADS FOR TOO LONG.
The UK Government's upcoming Road Safety Strategy presents an opportunity to make our streets safer, healthier and more inclusive.
Living Streets and The Bikeability Trust are preparing a report which will provide evidence and recommendations to shape the strategy’s development. And we want to hear from you.
Tell us what would make a difference to you and how your roads could be made safer.
Whether you would like to see improvements to the walk to school, better adherence to the Highway Code, an end to pavement parking, prioritisation of women’s safety, or action on speeding and driver behaviour, now is the time to have your say.
Please submit your evidence to [email protected] and check out the FAQs we've compiled to help with your submission.

Support our emergency appeal
Living Streets has been campaigning for safer streets for everyone for 95 years. Sadly, today we are facing a financial emergency. To carry on our vital campaigns work we need to raise £250,000 by summer 2025.
We have raised £101,000 since we launched our appeal in September 2024. But we have a long way to go to secure our future. Please consider donating what you can today.
Help us ensure we can continue our vital work to make our streets safer, healthier and more inclusive for everyone.
