Lothian and Borders Police launch this year’s ‘Around the Corner’ motorbike safety campaign at the Scottish Motorcycle Show, Ingliston, on Saturday 14 March.
Around the Corner is a pro-active motorbike campaign for the Scottish Borders. Police motorcyclists will be interacting with leisure bikers over the summer to provide information about the Borders roads in order to help them have a safe ride.
Working in partnership with Lothian and Borders Safety Camera Partnership, Knockhill Racing Circuit, Eastern and Western Motor Group and the Scottish Borders Council the aim of the campaign is to reduce the number of collisions and the severity of any injuries.
The 2009 campaign includes new branding, new biker routes, new road signs throughout the Borders and more ‘friends of the campaign’ stops with biker information and new pull-out route maps.
