New research project aims to improve outcomes for trapped casualties in road collisions
Fire and rescue chiefs collaborate with medics to explore better, faster road casualty extrication and care techniques. Outcomes will mean reduced pain and suffering for casualties, with economic benefits from reductions in road closure times.
Priority funding themes for 2019 and 2020 announced
Following consultation with the sector, the theme chosen for this year is ‘Innovative traffic calming and provision for vulnerable road users’. For 2020 the theme will be ‘How can technology be used to reduce road offending and promote safe driving?’.
Survey response by theme
Between September and November 2018, we carried out an online consultation to find out what our stakeholders thought about the importance levels of a number of themes that had been identified as potential gaps by our Road Safety Initiatives Committee.
The Road Safety Trust showcase event
On 17 May 2018, the Road Safety Trust held an event to showcase five of the projects it has funded since the Road Safety Trust started its grant-giving programme in 2016.
