Roadworkers' Safety Report Phase Two

Introduction and Methodology

The Highways Agency is interested in knowing why drivers speed at roadworks and what initiatives could be put in place to improve safety at roadworks.

MVA therefore conducted an attitudinal survey with higher risk drivers (those who have attended a driver improvement or speed awareness course in order to avoid penalty points on their licence) and those whose work is to bring about that improvement ("improvement professionals").

This quantitative research was informed by qualitative telephone interviews with higher risk drivers and improvement professionals and desk research.
