National Highways, the agency responsible for managing motorways and major roads in England, has warned that drivers who deliberately drive through cones or barriers to bypass roadwork closures are putting lives at risk.

According to the agency, hundreds of such incidents have been recorded this year in which drivers ignored road closures to skip queues by entering areas cordoned off for roadworks.

National Highways said there was growing concern over these incursions into closed sections of road and the danger they present to both road workers and other drivers.

The agency did not provide further details in the excerpt regarding specific locations, injuries, or planned enforcement measures beyond describing the trend as a safety concern warranting attention.
