The Mornington Peninsula Shire’s Traffic and Transport team has been recognised again for the innovative work they do, with their Safer Speeds on Rural Roads project being highly commended in the Australasian College of Road Safety Awards (Excellence in Road Safety).
The project submission needed to demonstrate innovation and address systematic and societal factors that contribute to road trauma. Our Safer Speeds on Rural Roads project successfully implemented 80km/h speed limits on high-risk rural roads, reducing road trauma and earning strong community support.
