Driving innovation for safer roads

In October, RACT attended and supported the Australasian Road Safety Conference (ARSC) in Hobart. The event brought together international road safety experts, policymakers and leaders to explore new ways to reduce road trauma and improve the safety of our roads.

As silver sponsors of the event, we were excited to be part of the conversations that shape the future of road safety.

Our GCEO Mark Mugnaioni, along with other members of our team, took part in insightful panel sessions and workshops focused on innovative approaches to road design, signage and speed management. These discussions will help us better understand the unique challenges Tasmanians face on the road and guide our work to make driving safer for all.

A key highlight was the focus on rural road safety, including the latest strategies in crash data analysis and ways to promote safe driving speeds on regional roads. These learnings will play a crucial role in supporting our ongoing community initiatives, including our $8 million Drive for Life program, designed to educate and protect our young drivers.

By collaborating with experts at events like ARSC, we’re continuing to drive forward our commitment to creating safer roads for everyone in Tasmania.
