Travelling Safely and Responsibly During the Easter Holidays
The Greater Manchester TravelSafe Partnership are encouraging young people across the region to travel safely and responsibly when out and about during the Easter Holidays.
A new campaign, which includes CCTV footage of real-life crime and anti-social behaviour (ASB) incidents, will be showcased across interchanges and social media channels throughout the school holidays.
By raising awareness of consequences of ASB, the campaign aims to both reduce ASB incidents and increase young people’s perceptions of safety on the network.
When travelling on the Bee Network, young people are expected to:
- Respect and treat others as they would like to be treated
- Act safely and responsibly
- Not tamper with or damage any property
- Not act in an anti-social way or commit any crime
If young people don’t follow these behaviours, they might:
- Get a fine
- Lose their IGO pass
- Receive a Civil Injunction
For incidents on the bus and tram networks, you can report incidents quickly and discreetly to a live GMP call handler, from your smartphone, using the LiveChat service or by calling 101 – or 999 in an emergency.
