Road Safety Support International Ltd, a prominent advocate for global road safety initiatives and the partner organisation to Road Safety Support Ltd, has been honoured with the prestigious King's Award for Enterprise in International Trade. This recognition highlights the organisation's exceptional dedication and exemplary efforts to promote road safety on a global scale.
The King's Award for Enterprise is a highly esteemed accolade in the business and trade sphere, bestowed by the Monarchy upon organisations that demonstrate outstanding performance, innovation, and growth across various sectors. Road Safety Support International’s receipt of this prestigious honour highlights its remarkable achievements and contributions to fostering safer roads worldwide.
Over the years Road Safety Support International (RSSI) has been tirelessly working to reduce road collisions and fatalities through extensive education, advocacy, and the implementation of effective safety measures. Leveraging expertise in road safety strategy, enforcement technology, and road policing, the organisation has expanded its influence beyond national borders, making significant strides in enhancing road safety standards across international boundaries.
"We are immensely honoured to receive the King's Award for Enterprise in International Trade," said Trevor Hall, Managing Director of Road Safety Support International. "This prestigious recognition serves as a testament to our unwavering dedication to promoting road safety globally. We remain committed to our mission of saving lives and preventing injuries on roads around the world. Enforcement and enforcement technology are vital components of any road safety strategy. RSSI is uniquely positioned to assist law enforcement authorities in implementing effective strategies, operations, and tactics. Enabling them to introduce speed management policies which will aid in compliance with the speed limits and road traffic laws, thereby reducing fatalities and injuries, but which also ensure road users who flout the laws are brought to justice by having a robust enforcement offering.”
Road Safety Support International has established fruitful partnerships with governmental agencies, non-profit organisations, and industry stakeholders worldwide, fostering a collaborative approach to tackling the complex and multifaceted challenges of road safety. Through knowledge sharing, capacity building, and the adoption of best practices, the organisation has made significant progress in promoting effective enforcement strategies and driving positive change across continents. Since the Covid-19 pandemic the organisation has bounced back with a significant increase in growth: the organisation’s top five markets in the final year of entry for the award were South America, Africa, Europe, and the USA. The organisation uses the funds it raises overseas to operate Road Safety Support, ensuring UK Police Force membership is subsidised.
The King's Award for Enterprise in International Trade not only recognises Road Safety Support International's past accomplishments but also serves as a catalyst for further expansion and impact in the global road safety landscape. The organisation remains steadfast in its commitment to advancing its mission, continuing to innovate, and collaborating to create safer roads for all.
