This NZ Road Safety Week, we want to highlight the importance of Road Safety for all road users.   As we all know, our roads are becoming increasingly busy, making it crucial to avoid distractions while on the road. We have highlighted before that when you travel at 90 km/h, you are actually traveling at 25 meters per second. Just two seconds of distraction at that speed, means you have travelled 50 meters without paying attention—half a rugby field. Driver distraction, alongside fatigue, is a major cause of incidents in our network.   At Coda, our top priority is the safety of our team members. Driver distraction is a serious concern, and we are dedicated to ensuring everyone gets home safely.   We have used "Stop for Safety", for our safety messaging in the past, and it applies to all of us, not just our professional drivers.   So, what does "Stop for Safety" mean? It means saying NO to distractions: reaching for a phone, not using a hands-free option, eating while driving, or grabbing a bag. These actions can lead to life-changing accidents, and none of us want that responsibility.   For professional drivers, we understand the demands of your job, but multitasking while driving is not worth the risk. We ask all drivers to Stop for Safety, and find a safe place to stop before grabbing something from a bag, having a snack, or making a call without a hands-free option. This message applies to all of us whether using commercial or private vehicles.   At Coda, we value the lives of our team members above all else, and their safety is non-negotiable. Join us, this NZ Road Safety Week in our commitment to Stop for Safety and say NO to distractions.   #CodaGroup #RoadSafetyWeek

On the 21st May, 2024 we held our fifth First Travel Solutions Supplier Event at the John Smith's Stadium in Huddersfield. This proved to be one of our most popular events yet and was another fantastic opportunity to engage with our wonderful Bus and Coach Suppliers. We started the event with a discussion on the Office of Rail and Road Recommendations, focussing on vehicle tracking and signage - in particular the launch of our new Driver Companion App and our collaborative trial with TPE to introduce new Destination Signage for passengers. We then opened our Q & A session where there was particular focus on the use of electric destination blinds, and the new PSVAIR regulations. We ended the day with a presentation from our colleagues at TransPennine Express who offered an insight into their world and how real time information is invaluable to all passengers trying to plan their journeys and make the most out of their day. Also how the implementation of tracking systems allows for a smooth operation throughout the day - reducing the need for multiple phone calls between TPE - FTS - Coach Drivers. A number of corrective actions were taken away by the FTS team which we will work on with the relevant departments in the hope of improving our relationship with Suppliers and improving the experience for them, and in turn, our TOCs and passengers. Thankyou so much to all who attended what proved to be such a beneficial meeting. #SupplierEngagement #FTS #RailReplacement #CoachIndustry #BusIndustry #BusAndCoach #BusDriver #VehicleTracking #RealTimeInformation #Signage #PassengerLogistics #ManagedTransport #CollaborativeWorking

Travelling by bike has so many benefits and for more people to cycle they need to feel safe on our roads. Our national road safety campaign #GiveCycleSpace reminds people they need to slow down around people on bikes. https://orlo.uk/Loka9

I am encouraged to see increasing opposition to dockless e-bike schemes and a shift in discussions towards reevaluating their operation. However, it is unfortunate that this reconsideration typically occurs reactively, rather than proactively before widespread implementation. Ironically, the ongoing efforts to address the challenges posed by dockless e-bikes underscore the effectiveness of the docked TfL bikes—a point that my research highlighted as early as 2022. More critically, while these schemes have increased mobility for those without existing barriers to independent travel, they have done so at the direct expense of individuals with reduced mobility. It is regrettable that earlier voices of concern regarding these schemes were dismissed rather than given due consideration. https://lnkd.in/eFsJpYU6

Rider Safety is Non-Negotiable! Yesterday, I booked a bike ride through Ola, and the experience left me concerned. The rider arrived without a helmet and was heavily intoxicated. I canceled the ride immediately, but it made me think—what if someone else had taken that ride? Who would have been responsible if something went wrong? This incident raises serious questions about the safety measures and rider screening processes of such platforms. As users, we trust these services for safe and reliable transportation, and incidents like this shake that trust. I urge ride-sharing companies to take stricter actions to ensure rider safety and professionalism. Regular checks, stringent penalties, and a feedback mechanism can make a huge difference. Let’s prioritize safety—for both riders and passengers. What are your thoughts on this? Have you faced similar experiences? Ola #SafetyFirst #RideSharing #Ola #PublicSafety #Responsibility
