Meet the Safer Journeys Team

The Safer Journeys Team aims to raise the awareness of all road users about how to travel around Medway in the safest, healthiest and most environmentally friendly way. This ranges from promoting the benefits of leaving your car at home for improved access around schools to offering guidance on how you can use roads more safely. This will help reduce the severity and frequency of road accidents and hence the number of casualties through:

• reducing the use of the car for short journeys;
• assisting travel problems on the school journey through school travel plans;
• encouraging more cycling and walking, through such activities as walking buses;
• theatre in education such as Licence to Kill?;
• monitoring and training school crossing patrols;
• providing minibus training advice;
• providing schools with free Bikeability courses (previously known as cycling proficiency training);
• raising awareness through events and campaigns - check out the latest Safer Journeys Team news.
