Current Work
A key priority for PACTS in the current Parliament is for the United Kingdom to adopt a more strategic approach to casualty reduction. International evidence shows clearly that a target for casualty reduction supported by a strategic aim such as Vision Zero is the most effective approach to improving safety. In its report “Beyond 2010” published in 2007, PACTS argued for the UK to adopt such an approach, possibly based on the approach taken towards managing risk to a level as low as reasonably practical.
PACTS also publishes regular research reports, the most recent being on safe mobility for an ageing population (March 2012). These contain recommendations to government and to transport providers to ensure that safety for all transport users is improved.
