A new road safety campaign launches this week as part of the Streets Ahead partnership. The initiative aims to reduce the number of road traffic incidents involving cyclists on Edinburgh’s roads.
Led by the City of Edinburgh Council with Lothian and Borders Police, the Drive Safe, Cycle Safe campaign will run throughout Summer and Autumn, educating road users on types of behaviour that can be hazardous to both cyclists and motorists.
Phase one of the campaign highlights the importance of observing traffic lights and advanced stop lines (or cycle boxes).
As part of the campaign, a series of road shows will run this week across the city – come along for the opportunity to get some safety advice and have your bike security marked for free*
