Road safety in the West Midlands
End-of-day debate on a single topic
Manuela Perteghella (Liberal Democrat MP for Stratford-on-Avon) has secured an adjournment debate to raise concerns about road safety in the West Midlands. Adjournment debates allow backbench MPs to highlight local or national issues for government response, typically at the end of the parliamentary day. This debate will air concerns about traffic accidents, accident prevention measures, or road infrastructure safety in the region, with a government minister responding.
Road safety is a public health and transport issue affecting all road users—drivers, cyclists, pedestrians, and communities. The West Midlands, a densely populated region with significant urban and commuter traffic, has particular road safety challenges. The debate provides a platform to press the government on enforcement, infrastructure improvements, or policy changes that could reduce accidents and fatalities across the region.
