Road safety

Safety on our roads is important to maintain a healthy, vibrant community.

We work closely with Transport for NSW to deliver local road safety programs in our region.

Find our current road safety messaging below, plus any upcoming road safety events and activities in our region. For State and national road safety campaigns that we are a part of, head to Transport for NSW’s Centre of Road Safety.
