Road Safety in the Highlands

Highland Council Road Safety Plan

The Highland Road Safety Plan aims to reduce road traffic collisions, injuries, and fatalities across the region by addressing the unique challenges of our rural, remote, and urban communities.

Through a coordinated Safe Systems approach, the plan seeks to create safer roads for all - whether you are walking through a village, cycling along a scenic route, or driving on rural single-track roads.

It reflects our commitment to protecting lives, supporting sustainable travel, and ensuring that everyone can move around the Highlands safely and confidently.
