Road Safety GB has announced plans for a conference focusing on powered two-wheeler (PTW) safety, to be held in February 2025.
The one-day conference will be held at the National Motorcycle Museum, located close to the NEC near Birmingham, on Thursday 13 February 2025.
The event will be formally launched in early/mid-September, but anyone interested in attending, speaking, exhibiting or sponsoring the conference is invited to express interest by emailing Nick Rawlings, in order to receive a notification at the time of launch.
Bill Smith, director of communications at Road Safety GB, said: “Powered Two Wheeler riders are among the most at-risk road users which is why we’re putting together this dedicated conference for road safety professionals.
“This conference will set out to showcase new safety initiatives and campaigns within the PTW sector, and discuss the challenging issue of how PTW riders fit into the Safe System.
“We also hope to create a networking opportunity for road safety professionals with an interest in PTW riders and bring local authorities and the private and third sectors closer together.
“Above all, we plan to motivate, inspire and equip attendees to take action on PTW rider safety as a result of attending the conference.”
The conference committee is in the process of identifying topics and speakers, and plans to be in a position to publish an outline agenda by the time of launch in early/mid-September.
Anyone wanting to know more, or to request an alert when the conference is launched, should contact Nick Rawlings by email in the first instance.
