Our Goals

The Commission calls for contractors, sub-contractors, developers, planners, highway engineers and designers to respond to the challenge of Vision Zero and drive change in the industry to save and enhance lives. 

 Why we need to act:

• Whilst HGVs only account for 3.5% of traffic across London, they are involved in 57% of crashes in which a cyclist has been killed (2007 – 2014). Many of those accidents are with HGVs involved in construction activities
• 76% of collisions occurred at junctions
• 62% of cycle fatalities at traffic signals involve large vehicles turning left or moving off, with 23% where there is not an Advanced Stop Line or feeder lane, making cyclists invisible to drivers in truck cabs
