    Brief

    This research project aims to fill knowledge gaps about how longitudinal road surface markings (such as centre lines and edge lines) affect road safety on England's Strategic Road Network. The study will investigate how these markings influence driver behaviour and reduce collisions and serious injuries. Researchers will analyse data to estimate the potential safety benefits of different marking types and identify which road conditions, site characteristics, and operating environments offer the greatest improvements. The project will also provide practical recommendations for overcoming barriers to wider adoption of these safety treatments. This is phase 2 of the Road to Zero Harm research initiative. Suppliers should have expertise in road safety analysis, driver behaviour research, statistical modelling, and knowledge of road marking standards and implementation.
