Transport for London DVS
Progressive Safe Systems PSS

Keep cyclists & Pedestrians safe London DVS phase 2 PSS

Transport for London (TFL) has announced plans to introduce the Progressive Safe System (PSS) for vehicles, starting in October 2024. This move is part of TFL’s ongoing efforts to create safer roads for all road users, including pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists.

This move by TFL is welcome news for London’s road users, as it will significantly reduce the number of accidents caused by driver error. TFL estimates that the system will save an estimated 4,000 lives and prevent over 100,000 injuries on London’s roads over the next decade.

While the initial cost of implementing the system may be high, in TFL’s view the long-term benefits in terms of road safety and reduced accident-related costs will more than justify the investment.
