  • M6 Junction 8 to 10A Smart Motorway
    Post Opening Project Evaluation M6 Junction 8-10a Smart (Managed) Motorway Scheme - Five Years After August 2017 Notice Although this report was commissioned by Highways England, the findings and recommendations are those of the authors and do not necessarily represent the views of the Highways England. While Highways England has made every effort to ensure the information in this document is accurate, Highways England does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of that information; and it cannot accept liability for any loss or damages of any kind resulting from reliance on the information or guidance this document contains. Post Opening Project Evaluation M6 Junction 8-10a Smart (Managed) Motorway Scheme - Five Years After Foreword Highways England’s motorways are some of the safest in the world. Our road network carries a third of road traffic and we have seen demand grow by a quarter since 2000 with continued growth forecast. One reason for the introduction is smart motorways is because there are more vehicles on the road. By making use of the full width of the road, smart motorways add that extra capacity to carry more vehicles and ease congestion. They have evolved from Controlled Motorways (with variable speed limits) to Dynamic Hard Shoulder Running (opening the hard shoulder as a running lane to traffic at busy periods) to All Lane Running (permanently removing the hard shoulder and converting it into a running lane). Compared to a traditional motorway widening they deliver: • Increased capacity at significantly less cost than traditional motorway widening. • New technology and variable speed limits to improve traffic flow.

Although our assessment of the evidence has drawn some markedly different conclusions from those reached in the POPE meta-analyses, we acknowledge the value and importance of the POPE process itself. We also acknowledge and are grateful for the willingness of Highways England to assist with this research, by supplying data and information from their archives.
