The Canterbury and West Coast Branch of the Transportation Group will be hosting Emeritus Professor Richard Allsop to give a guest talk on road safety developments from the Great Britain and the European Union. Richard is a member of the British Government’s Road Safety Advisory Panel and chairs its Statistics Group, having previously chaired the group which developed numerical advice to Ministers on the setting of Britain’s current road casualty reduction targets. He is a director of PACTS (the British Parliamentary Advisory Council for Transport Safety) and is active in the European Transport Safety Council as chairman of its Road Infrastructure Working Party, a member of its Transport Safety Policy Working Party, and chairman of a newly established working party on methods for assessing risk and setting targets in transport safety programmes.
We’re looking forward to learning about road safety developments abroad in light of the Ministry of Transport’s recent draft road safety strategy—Road to Zero.
Light refreshments will be provided.
