“We need to do something different and Vision Zero is the answer”
The Leeds Safe Roads Partnership has launched its Vision Zero strategy with the aim of eliminating road death and serious injury by 2040.
The strategy was launched on 20 October, with an event organised as part of this year’s Project EDWARD week of action.
It uses a ‘Safe System’ approach that considers all factors that could help to prevent fatal and serious road crashes.

Today, the three road trips complete their journeys.
