PACTS conference - Safety and Sustainability: Developing a Seamless Approach

Description:

This conference - organised by the Parliamentary Advisory Council for Transport Safety (PACTS) - will explore the opportunities to make safety and sustainability complementary approaches. For example: how can we create environments that will encourage people to walk and cycle? Can business travel become both safe and sustainable?
