Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask Her Majesty's Government when the review into safety on Smart Motorways is expected to be completed; and when they intend to publish the findings of that review.

The Secretary of State for Transport heard the concerns about smart motorways and asked the Department to carry out, at pace, an evidence stocktake to gather the facts quickly and make recommendations.

While I would not want to pre-judge the results of that work, what I can say is that we will continue to prioritise improving safety – making conditions safer for everyone on our roads.
