ACT Road Safety Action Plan 2020-2023

Reports can be disappointingly inaccessible. Unfortunate, when the topic is important.

The ACT Government endeavours to make roads safer. This is the way it has been done up until now.

Protecting cyclist on ACT roads needs to be made a priority.

An e-scooter scheme in the ACT is troubled by the casual nature of the riders.

I am often disturb by drivers tendencies to spread beyond the space allocated to them. Particularly bike lanes are excellent for parking.

The follow-up to a horrific collision on Coulter Drive in 2020 where a cyclist was hit by a car.

The cyclist Dr Teresa Foce died on a poorly maintained path, awash with gravel. The ACT Government needs to show more responsibility.

Poor road markings and poor motorists make a cyclist’s life difficult.

Closure of a major bike path for resurfacing.

Vulnerable road users are pedestrians and cyclists that can be fatally injured in a collision with a motor vehicle.

Not recent but recent enough to be useful.

The safety of cyclists grows with awareness.
