Low speed streets save lives and are the heart of any community. 30 km/h (20 mph) speed limits where people and traffic mix make for streets that are healthy, green and liveable, in other words, streets for life.

UN Global Road Safety Week

This week marks the 6th UN Global Road Safety Week and the kick-off of a new Decade of Action for Road Safety. This is the global moment to amplify ongoing campaigning efforts to secure political commitment and drive change for low-speed communities. 

Low-speed, liveable streets are essential and urgent. In support of this year’s campaign #Love30 #StreetsforLife, the International Road Federation (IRF) calls for urgent action on speed with an Open Letter.
