ROAD SAFETY At FM Conway we have a track record of road safety from our Road Safety Manager, Dave Conway, who was instrumental in developing the ISO 39001 accreditation. This has been key in our partnership with TfL on the ‘Exchanging Places’ programme, which allows cyclists to see what visibility is like driving an HGV in order to provide the other perspective and help increase road safety. Most recently we have been at the forefront of getting the new changes to the Highway Code out to all of our people, covering key safety areas including, pedestrians having priority over vehicles at road junctions, cyclists taking up more central positioning prior to turning corners, and a hierarchy of responsibility, placing HGV drivers at the top.

All of the changes are designed to raise road safety standards and ensure a culture of safe and effective road use that benefits all of the users on the road. Something very close to the heart of everyone at FM Conway! FM Conway has also aligned itself with the road safety charity, Brake, due to the charity’s excellent ambitions in ensuring safety is paramount for pedestrians, cyclists and motorists, and to guarantee we operate in a world where everybody moves in a safe and healthy way.
