The West of England Partnership's vision to improve transport across the region

Road safety

Why a road safety partnership?

The West of England recognises Road Safety as a key priority for the area and as such it has established a Road Safety Partnership to work together to help reduce road safety accidents.

Working together for better results

Many of our partners have contributed strongly to casualty reduction over many years, but by drawing together all of the organisations who are able to play a part in improving road safety we are optimising the scope and effectiveness of our road safety activities.  This involves greater co-operation and collaboration between all of our partners, and pooling of knowledge, skills and resources.  

  Comprehensive campaigns and sharing of best practice across the West of England sub-region will bring cost benefits through economies of scale and should result in high rates of return on investment.  There is considerable scope for all of our partners to participate in the delivery of “hearts and minds” road safety initiatives as part of their core work. 

A key priority will be to fully implement the Road Safety Action Plan of the Joint Local Transport Plan for the West of England.  This will require us to achieve and if possible exceed the Plan's ambitious casualty reduction targets.
