Don't Cross or Walk Along Motorways
The Highways Agency aims to make more people aware of the dangers of walking or crossing our motorway. We have launched a poster and radio campaign aimed at 16-25yr olds. Hopefully with our hard hitting posters, our message will come across.

Where next for hard shoulder running?
On 25 October 2007, the Secretary of State for Transport announced a feasibility study into how ATM technologies and other advanced signalling and traffic management techniques might be applied more widely across the motorway network to cut congestion and benefit road users. More information is available on the Department for Transport website.
In March 2008, this feasibility report identified stretches of motorway across England that could benefit from active traffic management-type technology and work is now underway to develop proposals for these locations. More information is available on the Department for Transport website.
