Dealing with road works

 WELCOME BEST DRIVING SKILLS 

Dealing with road works

Delays are inevitable when the carriageway needs to be repaired. You need to take a common-sense approach to these situations and follow some basic 

safety rules so that accidents and further delays are avoided.

Road works are well signposted, particularly on fast and busy roads. Slow down and get into the correct lane in good time. Remember that there will 

be workers in the road who might not be concentrating on the traffic. Obey any speed limit that is in force, and keep a good separation distance so that you can avoid braking sharply.

On dual carriageways and motorways it is often the case that a contraflow system is in operation. 

This permits traffic travelling in the opposite direction to use the same carriageway. This means reduced lane widths and higher traffic density. On 

motorways, signs may indicate that you should use the hard shoulder as part of the carriageway. Take care in these situations – if a vehicle breaks down, 

there is nowhere for the driver to pull in!
