Road Safety

Almost 10,000 people have been killed or suffered life changing injuries on Greater Manchester's roads in the last 10 years. Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) has now endorsed a draft Vision Zero Strategy for the city region. It aims to eliminate road death and life changing injuries by 2040, with a target to achieve a 50 per cent reduction by 2030. The intention is to increase safe, healthy, equitable mobility for all.
