Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government, in the light of the report on shared space <i>Accidents by Design</i>, whether they are considering an immediate moratorium on all existing shared spaces until an impact assessment has been undertaken.
The Government is not considering a moratorium on shared space schemes. It is entirely a matter for each local authority to decide what type of traffic management scheme is needed for the roads that they are responsible for, be this shared space or another type of scheme.
