Safe System Training Course

To support road safety professionals’ ability to implement Safe System, Road Safety GB Academy, supported by the DfT, piloted and rolled out a new training course that explores the key elements that underpin the Safe System concept. This presentation will provide an overview of the course content and evaluation findings.
Safe System Network

Road Safety GB and PACTS have worked together on a project to explore ways to encourage collaboration between local authorities and other stakeholders to apply a Safe System and grow a network of local road safety partnerships. The presentation will cover what has been undertaken and what links and resources are available.
Systems Thinking in Transport Safety
Dr Ianto Guy, Senior Consultant, TRL
This presentation will explain the benefits of Systems Thinking to transport practitioners of all kinds and outline the work that TRL has recently completed for the DfT to help develop the application of Systems Thinking tools to the safety of all transport modes.
Improving safety at Victoria bus station: A holistic and multi-disciplinary approach
Jo Bacon, Social Research and Behavioural Science Technical Director, AtkinsRéalis & Simon Castle, Bus Safety Development Manager, TfL
To support TfL’s ambition to reduce bus-involved casualties, AtkinsRéalis undertook an in-depth safety review of Victoria bus station and the surrounding area – a bustling and complex transport interchange in the centre of London. The findings informed the development of interventions to improve safety at the bus station – spanning the pillars of the safe system, as well as short-term and long-term measures.
