Road Safety for Hornsea Children

Cemex were delighted to step in by providing a truck for the day, along with classroom sessions, to highlight the dangers for vulnerable road users when interacting with large vehicles.

The Cemex team consisted of Ian Phoenix, Midlands Logistics Manager, Grant Garner, Logistics Supervisor, Dave Besford and Edward Wingell. The sessions were delivered to approximately 300 pupils and were very well received. They will hopefully go a long way to keeping the children safe. This is particularly important to Hornsea town which is rapidly expanding with for over 400 new homes, dramatically increasing LGV traffic delivering to the sites. Being a coastal town too, holiday traffic will be heavy during the holidays, again highlighting the relevance and importance of helping the children to remain safe.

As a thank you, the pupils produced a handmade card to express how much they had enjoyed getting into the Cemex Truck!

Cemex’s road safety engagements are a useful tool in the business’ efforts to extend its commitment to health and safety to local communities.
