## Description

As part of our Strategic Business Plan National Highways is committed to leading an industry-wide approach to suicide prevention\. We want to ensure that consideration and assessment of suicide risk is imbedded within our risk management arrangements and is applied on every applicable scheme\. The objective is to develop a new standard for suicide prevention for the Design Manual for Roads and Bridges \(DMRB\) and supporting guidance to ensure that those responsible for identifying and managing suicide risk have an awareness of suicidal crisis, factors that may influence risk of suicides on the Strategic Road Network \(SRN\) and dissuasive interventions\.
