The UK is working on making roads safer for pedestrians and vehicles by planning and designing road networks. Local authorities are responsible for managing safety, with laws in place for standard pedestrian crossings and traffic calming measures. National guidelines help local authorities promote walking, like creating home zones and encouraging walking to school and work. Integrated transport policies involve reducing urban traffic, slowing or speeding traffic flow, and public participation. Speed management is improving with new technology. Most funding comes from national sources, and progress depends on national government initiatives.
