Gardaí, supported by the Road Safety Authority and partner stakeholders will run a "Safer Roads for Dublin” campaign this October and November. The aim of the initiative is to reduce the number and severity of road traffic collisions. October and November are traditionally high risk periods on Dublin roads.
As part of the initiative Gardaí, the RSA and other stakeholders will encourage safer behaviour on our roads by all road users, with particular emphasis on
red light running, safe cycling and improved driver behaviour. Road users are asked to be aware of their own and others safety.
Everyday, road users put themselves at risk by driving, cycling or crossing through red lights, by disregarding speed limits, or by having ineffective lighting on their vehicles.
The campaign will encourage road users to change poor behaviour and make our roads safer for all. To be safe on our roads pedestrians, cyclists and motorists need to be seen, Gardaí in association with the RSA and Stakeholders will encourage all road users to improve their visibility on the Roads.
Everyone has a part to play in road safety, and even small actions can lead to big changes on our roods.
The Safer Roads for Dublin initiative is supported by the RSA, Dublin Bus, LUAS, TII (Transport Infrastructure Ireland), National Transport Authority and all four Local Authorities.
