‘PTW Riders: improving safety and reducing collisions and casualties’

January 27, 2021

Road Safety GB has unveiled plans for an online event focusing on the issue of PTW rider safety.

The online event, titled ‘PTW Riders: improving safety and reducing collisions and casualties’, replaces a conference of the same name which has been cancelled because of the Covid-19 pandemic.

The PTW Riders event will be aired free-to-all during March 2021, commencing Monday 8 March, and will follow a similar format to the Festival of Road Safety which attracted more than 8,000 visits from road safety professionals and others during November 2020.

The programme will comprise a mix of pre-recorded video presentations, live discussion sessions and podcasts. To date, 13 contributors from academia, road safety and the PTW sector have already confirmed their participation.

A full programme will be published by mid-February, giving details of when the various presentations and sessions will be published.
