As part of the work the MCCofNSW is doing with Transport we have been asked to circulate a request for a control group for an accident survey being carried out by Uni of NSW.
This is the preliminary stage of a larger survey and the crash sites have been selected based upon information already in hand.
They need riders that regularly go past the points listed below who ahve not crashed to ask more questions realting to perception of hazards in those areas.
