Road Safety GB and PACTS are pleased to be working in partnership to support the implementation of the Safe System approach at a local level. Together, we are launching the Safe System Practitioner Network—a growing resource hub designed to foster collaboration among local road safety partnerships, transport authorities, and wider stakeholders.
Building a Community of Practice
The Safe System Practitioner Network aims to bring people and organisations together, enabling the exchange of information, strategies, and contact points to support the practical application of the Safe System.
With a number of local transport authorities already developing and publishing road safety strategies based on Safe System principles, the foundations of this network are now in place. The goal is to continue expanding this work by sharing strategies, adding case studies, and providing contacts for peer-to-peer learning and support.
Explore the Knowledge Centre
The network is hosted on a dedicated section of the Road Safety GB Knowledge Centre—a free-to-access, web-based library of road safety information and expertise. Here you’ll find:
-
- Published local Safe System strategies
-
Case studies from across the UK
-
Contact details for local authority leads
-
The new ‘10 Steps to Create a Safe System’ guide
-
Access to the Safe System Help Forum
