Safety improvements have been carried out on a number of Glasgow streets as the city prepares to do more to reduce road crashes with 14 people killed on the city’s roads in 2023.

Commenting on the loss of lives, Scottish Greens councillor Jon Molyneux said: “I think this is one of the most sobering reports I have ever seen as a councillor and I think we should take a moment to acknowledge that every one of those 14 deaths is an avoidable tragedy.He added: “We should not underestimate for a second the severity of the issues and the need to tackle them with some urgency.”

A range of actions have been put forward following a survey after a road safety roundtable by the Safe Glasgow Partnership.Other actions include working with companies using delivery cyclists to address road safety issues, looking at restriction of parking on pavements, and encouraging people to consider using sustainable transport for everyday journeys.
