Supporting Project EDWARD

Project Edward: Every Day Without A Road Death is a UKwide road safety initiative, which promotes ‘safe systems’ and aims to create a road network free from deaths or serious injuries. During September, there were events up and down the country, all to promote safe vehicles, road use, and speed. Lynch were pleased to be able to showcase our new Low Entry Tipper Lorry, our 5-Star Direct Vision Standard (DVS) vehicle with high visibility cabs and lower seating positions, windows and mirrors which are specifically designed to eliminate dangerous blind spots.

As a leading provider of Operated Plant Hire, Haulage and Transport within the UK Construction Industry, we know how important it is that we operate safely on the UK’s roads. A safer road environment benefits everyone and helps us to leave a positive impact in the communities we work in. Events like these highlight just how important road safety is!

Supporting Project EDWARD North: safety day at BBV’s Kenilworth compound

We were delighted to attend the final event of the Project EDWARD week of action in September at HS2’s Kenilwoth compound, hosted by BBV JV. We were joined by Dawes Highways Safety group, event sponsors.

The event featured several safety stands and a demonstration to show the emergency services working together to remove an injured person from a 30 ton dump truck, and the event was live streamed across the country to further spread the safety message.

Thank you BBV JV for hosting this event!
