Gauteng to launch Festive Season Road Safety Campaign
Gauteng MEC for Transport and Logistics, Kedibone Diale-Tlabela, will on Wednesday, 13 December 2023, officially launch the Gauteng Festive Season Road Safety Campaign at Park Station, Johannesburg.
The Festive Season sees an increase in the traffic flow due to the high number of motorists who will be doing inter-provincial travels. A significant number of these are vehicles, including busses and mini-bus taxis, as well unproclaimed long distance light delivery vehicles (LDVs).
Aimed at reducing road fatalities during the festive period and beyond, the Department’s road safety campaign will focus on the following key areas of intervention:
- Pedestrians’ safety
- Motorist behaviour
- Road infrastructure
- Law enforcement operations
- Public Transport Operators
Details of the event are as follows:
Date: Wednesday, 13 December 2023
Time: 11h00
Venue: Park Station, Johannesburg
