Hi Tony.

Thanks for the email.
Will do.


Do you think the Skid Resistance Standard (HD 28/04) is ok?
Do you think that there are any specific cautions to
consider in applying HD28/04 on local roads, wrt PTWs?

Regards,
Andy

Andrew,

The guidelines do make rference to HFS but if you think that some
re-wording to 'punch it up a bit' would help with your (and of course
others) policies let me have some ideas.

Hi Tony.

Sounds like great news.

Im developing our skid policy in relation to HD28/04 (and the
forthcoming IAN). Do you think that there are any specific cautions to
consider in applying the Standard, wrt to PTWs - or do you feel that
it
is generally well founded for application on local roads, in this
context?

Many thanks,

Andy Bailey

The IHIE guidelines seem to have gone from strength to strength from
a very successful launch in 2005; winning a Prince Michael Award in
the same year; providing a template for the ACEM European Guidelines
Launched in 2006) and now predicted to exhaust the present print run
in the next month or so.

IHIE could have just reprinted the guidelines but aware that there
is still a problem of 'penetration' amongst some Central and Local
Government Authorities, Highway professionals and riders
representatives and aware of the success of the ACEM Guidelines
(which were only available as a PDF and download 10,000+ times) IHIE
are actively considering making the guidelines available on the 'web'

Subject to funding from the DfT Road Safety Grant Challenge fund,
work is due to start of a major web site for the Guidelines for
Motorcycling.

The domain name www.motorcycleguidelines.org.uk has been registered
and a preferred contractor, FUSED, identified for building the site.
A small editorial team based on the original guidelines 'steering
group' will oversee the site development.

IHIE would like to see the new web site as a `hub' for information
relating to Traffic Management, Planning & Traffic Policy and I
believe it important that members of this forum are involved.

As part of the web site the guidelines will be available as a PDF
download (chapter by chapter)
The existing content of the guidelines is currently under review
for `minor' revisions. I do not intend to undertake a complete re-
write of the Guidelines but PLEASE let me know where such `minor'
changes could be made.

The web site will also have links to the documents and reports
presently on the CD Rom that accompanies the guidelines but PLEASE
let me know of any other documents / web sites that it would be
useful to link to.

There will be a forum similar to the current IHIE Guidelines YAHOO!
Web site that will allow members to raise queries and pass on good
practice
A moderated registration will however be required for the forum/
future updates and this will (hopefully) mean reduction in the
occasional 'spamming' received of late.

Please do give this some consideration and let me have your thoughts
on the matter

Kind regards

Tony Sharp
