Abstract

In research carried out in 2000, mixed priority routes were identified asbeing among the least safe of urban roads. Subsequently the Department for Transport invited local highway authorities to submit schemes for inclusion in the Mixed Priority Routes (MPR) Road Safety Demonstration Project where grants were available to each participating authority. The ten schemes selected covered a spectrum of different types of authority and highway characteristics. This paper reviews the experience from the ten schemes involved and presents the lessons learned. It provides guidance for staff involved in MPR projects. Also included are the wide ranging benefits achieved; budget and programme issues; team composition and skills required; elements of delivery, consultation, participation, design and implantation; and evaluation strategies.
