Urban Area Speed Limits and Road Safety Strategy: Discussion

Mr. Sam Waide:

The answer is "Yes". In the road safety strategy there is a specific action on safe road use and safe travel to work. This will be a programme with employers. It will not only encourage safer driving. One of our delivery partners is the HSE. One area is van drivers wearing high-vis vests. This is something they already do as some employers provide high-vis vests for their van drivers. If there is a recommendation in the road safety strategy, we will implement it if it helps and encourages safer road use.
