Answer from Hansard

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Transport (Lilian Greenwood)

This Government understand the vital importance of our roads to people up and down the country each and every day, and we are backing our groundbreaking ambition with record investment. Last month, we published the first road safety strategy in over a decade, setting out our plans to reduce the number of people killed and seriously injured on our roads by 65% over the next decade. We are investing £24 billion over the next four years in improving the condition of England’s roads and delivering safer and more reliable journeys.
