Right Track has been educating young people on doing the right thing on and around public transport through a series of film workshops.

In an effort to break down barriers and build positive relationships between Transit Officers and young people, the second round of the Right Track Reward Card campaign is about to kick off.

It’s that time of year again where we like to join with other rail operators around the country to spread the word on rail safety. Held between August 15 and 21, Rail Safety Week is about raising awareness in communities across Australia and New Zealand about the devastating consequences of not being safe on and around railway networks.

If you’ve been using the train recently then you may already be aware of the Right Track Reward Card campaign. The campaign which launched earlier this month and runs until 4 July 2016, aims to reward young people for doing the right thing when they’re out on the rail network. 

If you’re a regular follower of our blog then you may remember the Right Track Hip Hop events we ran as part of Community Safety Month towards the end of last year. The events were such a huge hit that we decided to bring them back for 2016! Transit Officer Lawrence Hoxey and his crew came down to the One Step Closer program in Armadale on Friday nights throughout April to deliver those important rail safety messages using hip hop, rap and different musical instruments. The youth got involved with rap battles and built a rapport with Lawrence which helps to break down those barriers between young people and Transit Officers out there on the network.
