Since 1991/92 the annual Local Transport Plan allocation has included a block of resources specifically targeted at improving the safety of the highway network. Since then around £7,000,000 has been spent on Local Safety Schemes in the area now administered by the County Council. The schemes implemented have resulted in an accident reduction of almost 50% at the sites treated.
