Dead dog on hard shoulder

Updates

  • Thank you for contacting National Highways about the animal on our network.

    Safety is our highest priority and any animals on the carriageway that pose a risk to vehicles and their occupants will be removed as quickly and safely as possible.

    Household pets, such as a dogs and cats, will be retrieved, and we endeavour to reunite pets with their owners if they can be identified through microchips or other identification.

    Wild animals, lying off the carriageway, on verges or the central reservation, are normally left to naturally decay. However, they will be removed if they are considered a hazard, a danger to public health or there is a statutory obligation for testing or removal.

    We've attended this area and have been unable to locate a deceased animal on the hard shoulder.

    Kind regards National Highways

    State changed to: No further action
