Draft safer speeds strategy

The new draft Essex Safer Speeds Strategy, which we have developed in partnership with the Safer Essex Roads Partnership, sets out a flexible and evidence-based approach to how we plan to introduce safer speeds in Essex.

We aim to help transform our county's towns and villages from places which can sometimes feel dangerous and intimidating into safer, greener and healthier local communities.

The new strategy will help establish a coordinated and effective approach to managing speeds which recognises the changing ways people travel.

More information is available in our consultation summary document.
