Global Road Safety Week 17-23 May
Central to the publicity during the UN Road Safety Week 17 - 23 May is the Streets for life: why #love30?campaign.
Low speed streets save lives and are the heart of any community. 30 km/h (20 mph) speed limits where people and traffic mix make for streets that are healthy, green and liveable, in other words, streets for life.
The campaign calls on policymakers to act for low speed streets worldwide, limiting speeds to 30 km/h (20 mph) where people walk, live and play.
