The Pan-European police body 4753 TISPOL is planning the first ‘European Day Without A Road Death’. Named EDWARD, this is scheduled to take place on Wednesday 21st September 2016. A donation from GEM will help finance publicity material and a kick-off event at which road safety professionals can share ideas and agree on ways of attracting positive coverage for Project EDWARD and for road safety in general.

TISPOL believes that Project Edward has the potential to generate significant interest – from policymakers, road safety professionals, politicians, police officers, manufacturers and the general public. It offers an opportunity to re-energise efforts to work towards the 2020 casualty reduction targets, as well as offering to raise the profile of road safety significantly.

One of TISPOL’s aims in launching Project EDWARD is to highlight the work being carried out to cut crashes and boost safety and its vital importance to the safety of European citizens.
