Tyre Safety Month
Organised by TyreSafe 
Every October, TyreSafe’s Tyre Safety Month (TSM) promotes the importance of tyre maintenance for road safety. TSM highlights the dangers of driving on poorly maintained or illegal tyres, working towards a future where no one is harmed by tyre-related incidents on UK roads. The annual campaign, now in its 19^th year, educates road users on how to check their tyres, emphasising correct inflation, damage inspection, and legal tread depth. A key element of TSM’s aims is driving behaviour change, encouraging regular tyre checks and maintenance. By collaborating with partner organisations, TSM aims to reduce preventable incidents and improve road safety for everyone.

Transport & Health 2025
Hosted by Bristol City Council • City Hall, Bristol
Transport policies have wide impacts on health and health inequalities – they can promote, or damage, our health. The way we move, and our access to mobility choices, affect our health both as individuals and communities. Given the Government’s priorities across its Net Zero, Integrated Transport and Active Travel policy areas, maximising the co-benefits inherent in low-carbon transport interventions, active travel investment and better planning outcomes, there has rarely been a more positive time to prioritise health in transport and planning policy.
