Smarter Travel – latest news including Road Safety Week

Road Safety Week 19 – 23 November

Although we should be aware of road safety every day, using safe places to cross the road and following the Green Cross Code, Road Safety Week offers a good opportunity to highlight road safety issues.

The Think website (external link) includes lots of excellent advice and free downloadable resources. Also you can use the attached leaflets and play this presentation at your assemblies too.
