Drivers are being encouraged to stay alert for horse riders using the county’s roads, in a joint safety campaign from Oxfordshire County Council’s Fire and Rescue Service, and the British Horse Society (BHS).
‘Pass slow and wide’ warning signs will be positioned at hotspots used regularly by equestrians, where there is a record of reported incidents involving horse riders and road traffic. The signs will be erected on either a temporary basis for major equestrian events, or on a more permanent basis.
There is more information on the Oxfordshire County Council’s News website.
