Streets for People
Transport 2000's Streets for People network supports community groups, residents associations and individuals who want to improve their local environment. Streets for People can help you with your campaign for safer streets, slower speeds and traffic reduction and can provide newsletters, briefing sheets, posters and advice.
Summer Speed Watch took place in June with a number of Streets for People groups organizing street events. In Dunvant, Swansea, two schools took part, with more than 850 children asking for a 20mph speed limit on streets around the schools. Local people in Bishopston, Buckinghamshire organised an "Exercise your right" demonstration with people walking and cycling up and down the village as many times as possible.Find out more in the Streets for People newsletter and the New Life for Main Roads newsletter. click here to find out how to campaign for safer streets.
