Worcestershire Highways support Help for Heroes.



Yesterday, Ed Moore, Chairman of Worcestershire County Council, presented a £1400 cheque to "Help for Heroes" on behalf of Worcestershire Highways. The money was raised by Ringway staff donating their Innovation Award monies won at the Ringway Innovation awards in October 2010. The Worcesterhire contract collected awards in eight of the eleven categories available, a fantastic achievement.


Help for Heroes will be represented at the Throckmorton Air Show on Saturday 11th June and would welcome your support.

May 2011 Health and Safety.



Our "monthly health and safety check" score has recovered from the dip that we suffered in April. The score is worked out by grouping together all the data that we measure monthly to monitor safety performance.

We have returned to our high standards and have had no incidents last month and no service strikes. The only "failure" has been the drop in "near miss" reporting which we need to improve.

On Thursday 26th May we have Eurovia World Safety Day. In Worcestershire the event will take place at Worcester Rugby Club and will be split into two half day sessions. We will provide more details shortly, but a significant part of the day will focus on the need to report near misses.
