Creating Safer Streets at 30km/h
Please sign our petition supporting safer speeds of 30km/h on local streets
Imagine a city where streets are built as shared spaces for people, not just cars. Where kids can safely walk and ride to school, and where more people are comfortable hopping on their bikes to get to work, rather than sitting in endless traffic. This is what we should be aspiring to achieve, in a global city like Sydney.
The expert evidence is clear that the best way to create safer and more liveable neighbourhoods is to introduce safer speeds of 30km/h on local streets.
A person struck by a vehicle at 50km/h has only a 10% chance of survival. At 30km/h, the survival rate increases to 90%. Safer speeds on local streets keep everyone safe, regardless of whether they're walking, riding their bike, or driving their car.
