Everyone should be able to use our roads safely.

If you’re walking or cycling, it’s crucial that you are seen, especially at night-time.

Stay protected by wearing hi-vis clothing and equipment.

Always carry a torch (on foot) or use bike lights (when cycling) after dark or when visibility is poor.
