This ABC News article highlights the truly shocking levels of trauma inflicted on pedestrians in the Northern Territory, which notes that 40 pedestrians have died on NT roads since 2019. This is a complex issue that will simply never be solved using current adopted approaches. Increased pedestrian walk time at signalised crossings and street light upgrades may help, but only where this infrastructure exists or is feasible to install. Unfortunately it is too expensive to install street lighting and traffic signals on thousands of kilometres of road. The 'new systems thinking approach' promoted by the Australasian College of Road Safety would be a good start to help address this issue. The idea is pretty simple - we need to acknowledge the different participants in the road system and their varying levels of authority, and work in a coordinated manner to address the issue. Whilst road authorities are a key participant, we also need to consider health and social services - by working together this could reduce or eliminate the need for pedestrians to expose themselves to danger on high speed roads. Austroads's 'Charting a Path to Zero' project can also play a massive part by providing road system participants a pathway towards implementing such a coordinated and effective approach. https://lnkd.in/gAE3dtP5

Why safer speeds and why community action? We all want to live, work, run a business or spend time in spaces and places that are comfortable, safe, interesting and welcoming. This is our chance to be part of it and help to make our streets safer and more community and business friendly. Road trauma is one of the biggest and most sustained causes of death and injury in our communities. Speed limit reduction is an effective and cheap way of greatly reducing road deaths and serious injuries. It is estimated that by reducing speed limits by 10km/h in Western Australia, we’d be able to reduce the number of lost lives and serious road trauma by 30%. That’s 48 lives saved per year and over 500 hospitalisations averted. There is a serious benefit to reducing speed and together, we can. Speed reduction improves safety and benefits local economies and community wellbeing. It contributes to building safer, healthier, more connected and people-friendly streets, where people can walk, cycle, connect and engage. Through creating safer and more lively streets, safer speeds will directly benefit local businesses through increased visitation.

We're working with our partner Road Safety Commission, our Principal Partner RAC WA plus PJA Main Roads Western Australia and Department of Transport, Western Australia to promote Safer Speeds and Better Places. We all want to live, work, run a business or spend time in spaces and places that are comfortable, safe, interesting and welcoming. This is a bottom-up, grassroots program driven by local leaders and Town Teams to make their streets better, safer, healthier and more prosperous, with the support of government agencies. The picture in the graphic is of the Inglenooks, a new public space created by the Inglewood On Beaufort #TownTeam, with the support of City of Stirling (Western Australia) on Beaufort Street in Perth, Western Australia. Road trauma is one of the biggest and most sustained causes of death and injury in our communities. Safer speeds are better for everyone and a proven way to reduce the road toll. This is our chance to be part of it and help to make our streets safer and more community and business-friendly!

The current road statistics are a sobering reminder of the urgent need for action. Every number you hear about is a life, a family, and a story. But we can create safer roads, if we work together. As we head towards Fatality Free Friday, we’re grateful for the support of long-term partner Suncorp Group for ensuring we can drive the awareness and education that saves lives. Suncorp’s unwavering advocacy of road safety helps us move closer to our goal of achieving a fatality-free future. Will you join us in being a part of the bigger picture by choosing road safety? #chooseroadsafety #fatalityfreefriday #fatalityfreefuture #beapartofthebiggerpicture #bethechange

Reflecting on the profound impact of losing a loved one—be it a person or an animal—due to road accidents, I’m reminded of how fragile life is. These tragic events not only devastate families and communities but also highlight the urgent need for safer road practices. I was incredibly proud to have attended the Merseyside Women of the Year Awards and meet these remarkable women. Hearing their stories and learning about the change they strive to achieve was truly inspiring. Their dedication to community safety, advocacy, and education drives progress and fosters a culture of care and responsibility. We can all contribute to safer roads by adopting simple habits: let three cars out at junctions on your next journey, count to ten before overtaking, and remember that not everything has to be rushed. Additionally, pass wide and slow when overtaking vulnerable road users, approach with caution, and always be mindful of pedestrians and cyclists. Let’s commit to being more vigilant, compassionate, and proactive in preventing such avoidable tragedies, inspired by the extraordinary women leading the way. #RoadSafety #CommunityCare #MWOTYAwards #PreventAccidents #ValueLife #patience #manners #cost #nothing

No; no safety professional would agree with your statement. Safety needs to be integrated into the organizations and their processes/products, but not as the primary guiding principle. It is important to note that engineers (the designers) are “dedicated to the protection of the public health, safety, and welfare.” We have to do everything right or nothing gets done right. This of course does not mean “safety first,” “ZeroVision,” “no harm,” or any of the other safety swear words (The Safety Swear Jar ). I have not heard the Marohn quote and it is more powerful when the words inside the commas are removed. There are always incidents with consequences, to everything. Blame is destructive and dangerous.
Director of Community Action at Strong Towns, working to assist people in taking incremental actions to make their communities stronger.
“Even when everyone is doing what is expected of them, in the transportation system that we’ve designed, there will be a base level of trauma, death, and violence.” - Charles Marohn We need to move beyond blame and take a critical look at how we design streets within our communities. The current mandated approach is broken and puts everyone at risk. This means we need to be critical of current conditions and undertake physical changes to move from Stroads to Streets. https://lnkd.in/eyafsCqP
