TTCF kicks off UN Road Safety Week

IN recognition of the United Nations’ resolution on Improving Global Road Safety, the TT Cycling Federation (TTCF) kicks off the UN Global Road Safety Week with a bike safety awareness ride on Sunday from 3pm.

In light of UN’s proclamation of the Decade of Action for Road Safety (2021-2030) and the ambitious target of preventing at least half of road traffic deaths and injuries, local cycling clubs Central Spokes, Sabers, Rigtech Sonics and Coconut Rim have opted to raise awareness.

The ride begins at Barakah Grounds in Chaguanas, heads to felicity and on to the Chaguanas main road. Cyclists will return to the starting point via Lange Park. The expected duration is just under two hours.
