07/06/2019

Thank you for following this page for the last seven years. It’s been a privilege sharing road safety information and events with almost 600 of you, however I have now resigned from Dubbo Regional Council and the administration of this page will be managed by Council staff from now onwards. Please continue to support road safety endeavours with Dubbo Regional Council.

Don't forget Double Demerit Points are now operational from Friday 7 June to Monday 10 June inclusive. Double Demerit Points apply for speeding, seatbelt, motorcycle helmet and mobile phone offences.

COOEE!!! It's Fatality Free Friday in Gilgandra today and together with the rest of Australia we are hoping for zero fatalities today and beyond. Gilgandra Shire Council General Manager David Neeves, Clr Noel Wrigley, Road Safety Officer Jayne Bleechmore and Sgt Nick Campbell of the NSW Police Force (Gilgandra) all made their pledges to drive safer on our roads today at the Gilgandra Community Plaza in Miller Street. It is great to see so many interested community members and council staff making their pledges on Fatality Free Friday. You can make your pledges online at www.arsf.com.au
