Help Shape Safer Roads in Coffs Harbour

We’re inviting Coffs Harbour residents to take part in an exciting community research project focused on reducing speeding and creating safer local roads.

The Community Action for Safe Speeds (CASS) study, led by researchers from the University of NSW and supported by the City of Coffs Harbour, is your chance to have a real say in how we encourage safer driving behaviours in our region.

Be Part of a Community Jury

We’re looking for everyday residents from Coffs Harbour to join a Community Jury — a diverse group that will come together to learn, discuss, and develop community-driven recommendations around safe speeds. You’ll hear from leading experts in road safety, share your views, and help shape local education and awareness initiatives that could be trialed in Coffs Harbour.

📝 Register your interest now!
Complete the short EOI form.
Participants will be reimbursed $40 per hour, covering your time and any out-of-pocket costs.

What’s Involved?

  • Four jury sessions over four weeks (14 hours total) - further information can be found on the side panel.

  • Expert presentations on speeding, road safety, and behaviour change

  • Group discussions and the opportunity to propose your own ideas

  • Contribution to a final report of community-led recommendations

Who Can Apply?

You’re eligible if you:

  • Are 18 years or older

  • Live, work, or frequently drive in the Coffs Harbour Local Government Area

  • Are willing to commit to attending all four sessions

  • Are comfortable communicating in English

Note: People with professional experience in road safety are not eligible. Demographic diversity will be considered, and a waitlist may apply once target numbers are met.
