This research was commissioned by Transport Focus to look at the needs and experiences of road users. Transport Focus wanted to use the research to get a clear picture of what road users thought about the motorways and main roads that make up the Strategic Road Network (SRN). What was their experience of using the SRN? Was it a good experience or not? What did they think worked well and what could be improved? What did they think about the management of the SRN? The research was carried out by Aecom in October to December 2014. It covered a diverse range of around 1 30 road users, from cyclists and motorcyclists to drivers and passengers of cars, vans, coaches, and large goods vehicles. The type of journeys they made included leisure, commuting, and business. Drivers ranged from novice to highly experienced drivers on the SRN. The research was carried out using discussion groups, interviews and accompanied drives. The full details of the types of participants and method is included in this full report. (Author/publisher)
