Countries that do a #SafeSystem Approach well tend to have goals related to speed management
This bill casts speed management as something that must jump through hoops and as a lower goal than maintaining wider lanes or parking
There's still time to apply for a #CompleteStreets safety assessment in your community to improve walking, biking and rolling for all! Applications are due tomorrow. #SafeSystem #SpeedManagement #Walk #Bike

⚡ TODAY AT #2025ARSC IN PERTH: If lower speeds save lives, why is change so hard?
Case studies show engaging communities, showing benefits & tackling myths are key to speed management success.

#SpeedManagement #SafeSystem
This is absolutely the right take.
The conventional approach to road "safety" in the US is really about limiting liability, reducing congestion, or state sanctioned victim blaming (or all 3).
We were making headway on changing that with the #SafeSystem until this year.
🌏 TODAY AT #2025ARSC IN PERTH:
What happens when WA invests $1b in safer roads?
7,200+ km treated, fatal crashes cut >50%, ~9 lives saved each year.
A powerful case for safer infrastructure.
