The Community Action for Safe Speeds (CASS) study offers the opportunity to contribute your ideas to help create safer journeys on our roads.
Would you like to join a community discussion on how speeding is managed in the Mid-Western Region? By joining a community jury, you’ll be part of a group decision-making process that brings together a diverse mix of local citizens.
The group will listen to expert content on speeding and road safety, deliberate on what they have learned, and provide suggestions from a community perspective. Together with your peers, you’ll help create a set of community-driven recommendations for local education and awareness initiatives to be trialed in your area, all aimed at reducing speeding and keeping road users safe.
