Vehicle safety on construction sites

Every year in the construction industry, people are killed or injured as a result of being struck by moving plant. Accidents occur throughout the construction process, from groundworks to finishing works. Managers, workers, site visitors and the public can all be at risk if construction vehicle activities are not properly managed and controlled.

Aim of this event:

To improve the management of plant and pedestrian interface issues on construction sites.
