......drop 91 per cent on Britain's 'most improved road
"Measures such as lower speed limits and better junctions and road markings have led to a fall of more than 90 per cent in fatal or serious crashes involving a cyclist or pedestrian on the country’s most improved roads for safety, according to a new report from the Road Safety Foundation (RSF).

The organisation’s latest annual report, How Safe Are You Driving On Britain’s Roads?, says a section of the A404 from Amersham to Junction 19 of the M25 in Buckinghamshire is the country’s most improved road.

However, a stretch of the A285 running from Chichester to Petworth in West Sussex has been designated the country’s most persistently dangerous one.

The report covers 44,375 kilometres of motorways and primary and non-primary A roads linking towns and cities throughout Britain, although it excludes city centres.

It accounts for 10 per cent of the nation’s road network, but half of all road deaths take place on them."
