2010-"Pavement surfing" - a joint initiative with
the Guernsey Police to clarify the law so that motorists are aware of the correct way to behave when faced with a wide vehicle
in a narrow road.
2007/10- Our most recent campaign - to open up a
cross country route for students coming from St. Peter Port so that they, too, have the option of walking and cycling safely
to the Baubigny Schools. The new pathway was opened in September 2010 thanks to the help of many Guernsey companies.

2007/8- Safe routes to the new Baubigny Schools.- we
campaigned for the one way system and cycle contra flow adjacent to the new school so that St. Sampson's and Vale
students could walk and cycle in safety. We were delighted when the new Environment Department put this in place for
the start of the new term in 2008.
2006-"What Price Road Safety?"
- proposals for reducing road traffic collisions. We estimated the cost to our economy of treating road traffic casualties
