Projects/Issues

Roundabout awareness

Esperance has no traffic lights, but a large number of roundabouts. Police and RoadWise Committee members conduct regular awareness sessions at roundabouts in the town centre to educate locals and visitors about the correct way to indicate when entering and leaving a roundabout.

Child car restraints

Several committee members are trained Type 1 Child Car Restraint Fitter's and offer their services free of charge to community members. Child car restraint fitting stations are also run on a regular basis. Committee members are available to conduct presentations to community groups such as kindergartens and child care centres as required.

Community activities

The RoadWise Committee conducts displays at many local community events, such as the Esperance Show, Australia Day Family Day and the Blessing of the Fleet. These displays are a great way of getting the road safety message out to the wider community.
