Entries now open for ARSC2015
If you have recently developed an innovative road safety initiative, then you are invited to share your work for the 2015 3M-ACRS Diamond Road Safety Awards, which are now open for 2015 entries.
Now in its fifth year, the awards continue to encourage all road safety practitioners from the public or private sector with programs that stand out from the standard, everyday practices and deliver significant improvements in road safety for the community.
The winner will receive a trip to the USA to attend the 46th ATSSA Annual Convention & Traffic Expo in 2016 in Virginia and will also have the opportunity to visit 3M Global Headquarters in Minnesota.
The award will be presented at the Gala Dinner during the Australasian Road Safety Conference (ARSC2015).
Last year’s winning entry went to the Amy Gillett Foundation (AGF), who demonstrated an original and effective approach to cycling safety.
Applications for 2015 close on 1 August. Entry forms can be downloaded here.
