Project EDWARD is an annual UK-wide road safety campaign with the long-term goal of a road traffic system free from death and serious injury. The theme for Project EDWARD 2022 is ‘Changing Minds, Changing Behaviour’. Through this event we hope raise awareness and engage communities in relevant road safety and community safety messages.
There will be increased road enforcement from the Special Constabulary and lots of free activities for local residents to enjoy.
