Bristol Safe System Course

 

Bristol Safe System Course

April 25, 2019

Achieving policy objectives around zero harm and safe system requires a full understanding of the philosophical and practical background.  Embedding this deep understanding within local transport teams was a requirement for Bristol City Council when they asked Agilysis to deliver a one-day training course for over twenty professionals.

The course content was amended to include a focus on urban issues which naturally led to discussions about vulnerable road users.  The link between speed and vulnerability is key in a safe system and participants considered how road and vehicles can be made safer for all road users.

The full course outline for the day was as follows:

  • Principles Of The Safe System
  • Leadership
  • Applying The Safe System: Safe Speeds
  • Applying The Safe System: Safe Urban Roads
  • Applying The Safe System: Safe Road Use
  • Other Safe System Elements
  • Bringing The Safe System Together

How Workplace Culture Can Transform Safe System Working

Creating safer environments, especially in road safety, requires more than strategies and procedures; it demands a strong workplace culture that prioritises safety. Corporate culture, which comprises shared values and behaviors, plays a crucial role in successfully implementing Safe System working. Case studies from companies like Etsy and Salesforce demonstrate how aligning culture with safety goals can drive significant positive change. By fostering a Safe System culture where safety is a core value, organisations can move closer to achieving ambitious goals, such as Transport Scotland's vision of zero road fatalities by 2030.
