Introduction
As this is the final Annual Report for the Road Safety Framework to 2020, we have not only reported the great work carried out by road safety partners in 2020 but have provided a look back on the Journey throughout the framework's decade, showcasing key outcomes.
The Journey section provides an oversight of all the key activities over the lifetime of the framework, highlighting their successes. This includes successfully meeting our casualty reduction targets, operating the framework's governance structure efficiently, undertaking a Mid-term Review, introducing and managing the Road Safety Framework and Evaluation Fund and reporting annually on key partner highlights.
The Activity Over 2020 section provides a detailed insight of the work carried out, and how it has progressed throughout the year while making a positive impact on road safety.
The Road Casualty Reduction Figures section provides a breakdown of the figures over 2020. This data allows us to track our targets that were set out at the start of the framework, clearly highlighting the success of meeting all five targets.
In the Key Stakeholder Activity section, road safety partners detail the initiatives and activities in which they have been involved in throughout the year and highlight their successes (and challenges) throughout the lifetime of the framework. They also give an insight into their priorities over the next framework.
In the Local Activity section, similar to The Key Stakeholder Activity, we asked local authorities and road safety partnership groups to detail their key activities over 2020 while providing an insight in to their actions undertaken throughout the framework.
The Road Safety Framework and Evaluation Funding section provides information on all the road safety initiatives that received funding over the course of the last funding round in 2019/2020.
The framework has now concluded and was replaced by a new Road Safety Framework to 2030 published in February 2021. The last section of this Annual Report provides a short summary of what is to come in road safety throughout the next decade.
