PACTS Event: Triple Whammy: achieving safety, sustainability and health goals in transport.

Description:

The conference will address the themes of transport safety, sustainable transport and public health and bring together experts from across sectors to place safety in a wider policy framework by examining synergies with sustainable travel and public health, and exploring practical ways in which more joined-up working can deliver better outcomes for all three sectors.

With local authorities taking on responsibility for public health, and cycling being pushed up the political agenda, this timely conference will place safety in a wider policy framework. It will bring together experts from across sectors to explore practical ways in which more joined up working can reach these goals.There may also be potential tensions between these three agendas. Active travel is being promoted by both the public health and sustainable travel sectors. Can safety levels keep up with the increasing numbers of vulnerable road users?

• Diane Abbott MP,
