The ‘No Second Chances’ campaign delivered by Transport for Wales aims to eliminate trespass on the railway and prevent death or injury caused by newly installed electrified lines. The campaign includes:
· flyers to all homes within 200m of the railway
· posters at all stations in electrified areas
· media coverage with interviews on BBC, ITV and radio
· an exhibition in Cardiff visited by the public and 200 children
· a bilingual drama company has delivered workshops to 12,500 young people at 104 schools
· a short advert on YouTube, viewed over 2 million times
There have been 10 million social media impressions across all channels and 5,000 people have visited the TfW website for further information on the risks of electrified lines.
Transport for Wales are working closely with the British Transport Police, holding joint briefing and security patrols to provide a visible deterrent which appropriately targets resources where most needed to deter trespass on the railway.
