Suffolk County Council, the
Police, Fire and Rescue Service, East of England Ambulance Service
and the Highways Agency work together as
Suffolk Roadsafe
Partnership to prevent road collisions through education,
engineering and enforcement.
Education - The tasks involved in learning to stay
safe on the roads are complex - whether as a pedestrian, cyclist,
motorcyclist or driver. Parents, carers, teachers and
community groups can call upon the assistance of road safety
officers, police and fire personnel to help children and young
people to become safe road users. Even adults, including
professional and mature drivers, can gain from our advice and
resources. Visit the
Suffolkroadsafe website for information about schools road
safety, Bikeability cyclist training, driver training, GrandDriver
scheme, motorcycle advice (Suffolk Ride Network).
Engineering - involves physically changing the road or certain
aspects of the road in order to bring about a reduction in
casualties. Suffolk County Council is responsible for all the
roads in the county except
Trunk roads which are managed by
Atkins on behalf of the
Highways
Agency. Visit the
Suffolkroadsafe website to see annual collision reports,
speed management information, speed indicator displays (SID), and
safety audits.
Enforcement -
Suffolk Constabulary is committed to making the county's roads
safer. As well as enforcing the traffic law, the Police
are responsible for safety cameras and community speedwatch in
the county.
