A separate crawler lane for heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) and average speed cameras could be implemented on the A34 road in the UK to help improve safety. The Herald newspaper says the plan is part of a multi-million pound set of safety measures proposed by Oxfordshire County Council's transport panel following a number of recent deaths on the road.

The measures will be put to 8101 Highways England, the authority in charge of the road, later this month.
