Road Safety Week: Why Coaches Are the Safest Option for School Trips
Each November, Road Safety Week (16th – 22nd) reminds us that the journey is just as important as the destination. For schools, it’s a reminder to think carefully about how students travel and who’s taking them there.
At Cheney Travel, safety has always been at the heart of what we do, and we believe there’s no better way to travel than by coach. Discover why coaches are the safest transport option for your school trips and book your transport here.

Coaches for Safer School Trip Journeys; Smarter Choices This Road Safety Week

Cheney Coaches: A Safer, Greener Way to Travel
Safety isn’t just about preventing accidents; it’s about making intelligent, more responsible choices. Travelling by coach significantly reduces traffic congestion and emissions, taking dozens of cars off the road. That means fewer vehicles, less risk, and cleaner air, an essential message for Road Safety Week and beyond.
