These positive results from our National Safety Campaign speak for themselves!!😃 "Pedestrians are mostly promoted to stop and look for trams before crossing by the signage" • 50% Look for trams before walking over tram lines! • 49% Stop at a tram line and look for trams! This is from combined data on 5 networks from our NSC Effectiveness Results🚊
