Overview 

Calling all Road safety auditors or aspiring auditors, or those that want to know more about Road Safety Audit, come and join us for the inaugural gathering of the SoRSA Wales Road Safety Audit Social Club (RSA Social Club). 

This is a free in person event that will be hosted by Tristan Brooks, Head of Road Safety at Go-Surveys, and Alastair Pike, Head of Road Safety at SLR Consulting, who are both SoRSA committee members.

Speakers

Tristan Brooks 

Director and Head of Road Safety at Go-surveys Ltd

Tristan is an independent Road Safety Auditor with over 20 years’ experience in Road Safety, Collision Investigation, Transport Planning and Traffic Surveys.

Before founding go-surveys 10 years ago, he worked for a number of multi-disciplinary transport consultancies and has been involved in major schemes in the UK, EU and Middle east.
Tristan has undertaken over 500 RSA’s in the last 5 years on a variety of schemes including large scale highways schemes, active travel routes, TTM, equestrian crossings and level crossings for major consultancies, Local Authorities and developers. He holds a 'HE' approved Road Safety Audit Certificate of Competency.

Tristan got into Road Safety Auditing to improve the standard/safety of highways schemes after driving, cycling or walking through schemes asking himself ‘why have they designed it like this?’ and thought he could make a difference.

Outside of work Tristan likes all sports, although as he gets older his participation is giving way to watching, although he can boast over 20 Welsh Rugby Caps for Wales, and has represented Wales in European and World Cups, albeit in the less glamorous touch rugby form of the game, rather than full contact!

Alastair Pike

Head of Road Safety at SLR Consulting

Alastair is the Head of Road Safety SLR Consulting, where he is responsible for the management of Road Safety across the country. He has 15 years’ experience in the fields of highway engineering design and road safety engineering within both the private and public sectors. He has a passion for road safety and seeks to provide real, tangible benefits to road users while creating spaces that are not only safe in operation, but also desirable for users.

Alastair is also responsible for project management and advising clients in regard to highways, traffic, transportation and road safety matters relating to various land use development proposals, highway schemes and safety studies. He is passionate about mentoring junior staff, in particular assisting them in obtaining qualifications and professional memberships.

He regularly presents to industry peers on the topic of Road Safety, and most recently spoke on “Road Safety: Past, Present & Future" at the RJS Road Safety Conference in Wales.

Alastair likes to spend any spare time at the beach with his family and tries to get in the water to surf whenever possible. Which isn’t so often these days!
