What the petition asks

Fund signs with local crisis support info and helplines on motorway and railway bridges. Work with relevant campaigns and organisations to ensure signs are safe, effective, and help people in crisis find local, face to face support.
People are dying from jumping from motorway and railway bridges, deeply affecting families, drivers, and whole communities. These incidents cause huge trauma for witnesses and exponential costs to emergency services. Signs with crisis support info could save lives, and prevent horrendous suffering.
