Safety Exchanging places working with cyclists “At O’Donovan Waste we believe the Exchanging Places initiative is vital to strengthen interactions between lorry drivers and vulnerable road users. It’s important for hauliers to collaborate with road users so that both have a joint understanding of the other’s experience and expectations.” 10 O'Donovan Yearbook WEDNESDAY.indd 12 14/12/2017 17:09:21
2017 Cycling in the city In May we were thrilled to get involved with the 2017 Tour Series, a cycling competition involving some of our country’s top Olympians and professional cyclists. We were invited to run an Exchanging Places event at the Tour at Wembley Park. It was the first time the Series had held an event at the park and the race circuit took in the concourse of Wembley Stadium and Olympic Way. We were on hand with one of our lorries to give people the chance to sit inside the cab and chat with our Logistics Supervisor Paul Neal - an approach which encourages mutual learning and understanding. “Cycling has many health benefits and it’s also great for the environment. Whilst encouraging people to get on their bikes and get active, we’re keen to raise awareness of the importance of road safety for cyclists, and we’re happy to be working with O’Donovan to achieve this”. Amar Dave, Brent Council Park2Park On 14 June we took part in Haringey’s Park2Park celebrations which saw 150 children from 12 local schools go on a mass bike ride to celebrate passing the Bikeability course. The ride also included a picnic at Finsbury Park (below) and we used this opportunity to show the children exactly what our drivers see from their cabs. As a local family firm, it’s really important for us to give back to our community and educating the next generation in road safety is a subject close to our heart. It was a great day and gave us the chance to catch up with the children from our local schools. 11 O'Donovan Yearbook WEDNESDAY.indd 13 14/12/2017 17:09:23
