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.

Pedestrians

Walking accounts for almost 30% of all journeys, and over 80% of journeys of less than a mile and is a very important mode of transport. Also the number of people who experience mobility problems is likely to grow in years to come. Therefore the need to cater for the transport requirements of disabled and elderly people will become increasingly important.

These pages outline how we plan to assist the pedestrians and disabled people who use our network.
