The City of Albany and the Albany Police Department, in cooperation with the Governor’s Traffic Safety Committee, the NYS Department of Health and neighboring municipalities, have initiated a traffic safety campaign – “See and Be Seen.”
Amongst other features, the program involves promotional literature and posters carrying basic messages for motor vehicle operators and pedestrians. The recent spate of pedestrian injuries and deaths on Central Ave. and other streets prompted this campaign.
The reminders are good for both experienced cyclists and drivers – the overall message is, as always, be considerate of other road users.
