Mental and Physical Safety on our Roads WA Program

Mental and Physical Safety on our Roads

The MaPS on our Roads program provides information, tips and training to help you navigate your journey to good mental and physical health.

Heavy vehicle operators are valued contributors to WA and are relied on for our essential goods and services.

Given the distances travelled on our expansive road network in Western Australia (WA), coupled with an older workforce, investing in the physical and mental health of heavy vehicle operators is vital to help keep drivers safe on our roads.
