High visibility road studs have been introduced on a route in High Wycombe after seven drivers died in accidents on it after dark.

The deaths and ten injuries on the A4128 in Buckinghamshire prompted the County Council to introduce measures aimed at reducing casualties on the route. This has seen Astucia solar road studs on the rural section of the route, the speed limit cut to 40mph for most of the length and the double white line system amended to suit the new speed limit.

The Astucia road stud automatically illuminates from dusk to dawn and is visible for up to ten times further than retro-reflective passive road stud.
