Rustenburg- This year’s Easter Arrive Alive launch will take a different approach with the involvement of transport stakeholders signing the pledge in support of Road Safety Campaign.

Community Safety and Transport Management, MEC Molapisi said it is time for the Department to implement an integrated approach with all relevant stakeholders in promoting road safety.

“Road safety is a combined responsibility, therefore, the department has taken a conscious decision of bringing all the stakeholders on board to commit in working closely with us to save millions of lives on our roads.

Our roads are painted red with blood of our loved ones and we are saying it’s enough, one fatality on the road is too many,” he said.

The pledge will be signed at the Rustenburg Bus and Taxi Rank where the MEC will further engage with drivers and commuters advocating for road safety during this year’s 2015 Easter Season.

Immediately after the official launch and signing of the pledge, MEC Molapisi will handover car seats donated by the Road Accident Fund to motorists. The beneficiaries will be identified during the road safety campaign roadblock at Ziniaville.

Members of the Media are therefore invited to be part of the event that will be held as follows:

Date  :         Tuesday 31 March 2015

Venue:        Rustenburg bus and taxi rank

Time  :         6H30 am
