Transit company Transdev Sydney initiates a public safety awareness initiative
Transdev Sydney, the operator of the Sydney light rail system, has announced the launch of a new public safety campaign aimed at promoting pedestrian safety around light rail vehicles and tram tracks. The campaign, titled "Don't Run the Risk," is a collective effort with Transport for NSW and will be rolled out across the light rail network, customer channels, and social media.
The campaign comes in response to a spate of near misses and collisions around light rail vehicles and tram tracks, particularly during the school holidays when families and visitors, some of whom may not be familiar with sharing spaces with light rail vehicles, are more likely to be out and about.
Journey Makers at Sydney Light Rail have witnessed heart-stopping incidents involving pedestrians walking into the path of oncoming light rail vehicles or venturing across tracks during red lights. These incidents underscore the importance of raising awareness about the dangers of running or crossing carelessly near light rail vehicles and tram tracks.
The "Don't Run the Risk" campaign aims to promote safe travel behaviors around light rail vehicles and tram tracks, encouraging people to obey signals and use designated crossings to avoid accidents. The campaign will provide information on safe travel behaviors, offering practical tips and advice to help keep people safe.
The campaign launch coincides with the school holidays in Sydney, a popular period for families and visitors. By implementing the campaign during this time, Transdev Sydney hopes to ensure safety for all, especially those who may be unfamiliar with the light rail network.
