National Express launches ’hold on’ campaign

National Express West Midlands and the Road Safety Partnership have linked up to keep passengers safe when travelling on the bus network.

A series of posters have launched across National Express’ buses advising passengers to hold on to handrails and sit tight until the bus has slowed down.

The designs aim to reduce falls on buses and encourage passengers to take additional care when boarding and alighting. The bus company is planning a series of events to promote safer travelling throughout the summer. 

• Hold on to handrails while moving along the vehicle 
• Sit tight until the bus has slowed down 
• Keep aisles clear of bags and luggage 
• Use the priority seats at the front of the vehicle 
•  Ask the driver if you need additional time to reach your seat
