Richmond Council is committed to reducing casualties and making roads safe for all road users. In particular those most vulnerable including pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists.
We work with businesses, schools and directly with the public to raise the awareness of safety issues to motorcyclists including wearing the right clothing, staying legal and encouraging further training.
As well as targeting motorcyclists we also work with new and young drivers to highlight the need to look and see and act.
BikeSafe and ScooterSafe
We actively promote the BikeSafe and ScooterSafe courses which are offered at low cost. This excellent one-day course run by the Metropolitan Police contains some theory but guided rides and covers safe riding tips and techniques. See bikesafe-london.co.uk for more information.
