Western Cape MEC of Transport and Public Works Donald Grant on Monday launched the Global Road Safety Week with the focus on child pedestrian safety.

In the province child pedestrians make up a large majority of the children killed.

MEC Grant said a behaviour and attitude change around road safety is needed.

Ministerial Spokesperson Siphesihle Dube says “the focus of the project is to highlight the scourge that is faced by young people particularly in our roads as pedestrians.

Dube added that “the campaign is focused on improving pedestrian awareness safety and lowering the number of deaths of children particularly in that age groups”
