Alberta Traffic Safety Plan Advisory/Working Committee
Background
Alberta's Traffic Safety Plan is an ambitious initiative designed to significantly
reduce traffic related deaths and injuries. Initiated in November 2004, the
committee and subcommittees will develop a strategic and tactical plan to
implement the recommendations of the September 2004 McDermid Report
"Saving Lives on Alberta's Roads: Report and Recommendations for Traffic
Collision Fatality and Injury Prevention Strategy."
Objectives 1. To develop and implement a provincial action plan on traffic safety.
2. To develop and recommend strategies of the Traffic Safety Plan, ensure
targets are set and efficiently and effectively allocate resources to increase
road safety throughout the province.
3. To use Canada’s Road Safety Vision 2010, Alberta Health and Wellness’
Framework for a Healthy Alberta and Alberta’s Injury Control Strategy to
provide benchmarks for the Traffic Safety Plan initiative to reduce the
number of motor vehicle collisions and improve driver behaviour by
addressing and acting on the nine recommendations outlined in the June
2004 report Saving Lives on Alberta’s Roads: Report and Recommendations
for a Traffic Collision Fatality and Injury Reduction Strategy.
Status
Plan being implemented.
Partners & Sponsors • Over 30 Provincial Government Departments and other stakeholders,
