Dear Sir/Madam,

Lothian & Borders Police Road Policing Branch is committed to the Association of Chief Police Officers of Scotland (ACPOS) vision of making Scotland’s Roads Safer through Education, Encouragement, Enforcement and Engineering.

In order to promote this message during March and June 2011 a joint initiative will take place involving the Police and its partner agencies.

The intention is that every school within the East Lothian area will be visited on at least one occasion either at the morning drop off or afternoon uplift period.

The aim is to reduce the number and severity of road traffic casualties on East Lothian’s roads and to increase public confidence that their journey to and from school will be safe.

Officers will provide advice pertaining to the safe carriage of children and when appropriate enforce Road Traffic Legislation.

Throughout the School term complaints are received on a regular basis relating to poor driving, inappropriate parking and the unsafe carriage of children. This initiative will hopefully address some of these complaints and it is requested that parents are made aware of this campaign.

Schools will be visited on a random basis to ensure maximum effect. Any identified areas of concern or schools missed due to operational commitments will receive additional visits.

On the date that your school is visited officers will ensure that feedback is provided.

Your support in this initiative will be greatly appreciated.

Yours sincerely

 

Fraser Jervis
Inspector
Road Policing
