Road Safety Plan

The Scottish Government’s new Road Safety Framework to 2030 builds on what has already been achieved over the last decade and sets out a vision for Scotland to have the best road safety performance in the world and an ambitious long-term goal where no-one dies or is seriously injured on our roads by 2050.

Orkney’s Road Safety Forum, a multi-agency group, comprising representatives from of Orkney Islands Council; Police Scotland; NHS Orkney; Scottish Fire & Rescue Service; Scottish Ambulance Service and other interested parties, has been paramount in the production of Road Safety Plans for Orkney.  


Vision: Orkney’s Road Safety Forum is committed to working together;

  • to reduce the number of road collisions and road casualties in Orkney
  • enabling and encouraging safe, active and sustainable travel.

Goals: to implement the Vision outlined in the Orkney Road Safety Strategy to 2030 and the associated annual Delivery Plan.
