Educates over 1.31 lakh people of Thane on the importance of Road Safety
Instilling positive awareness on road safety and safe driving habits in the city, Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India (HMSI) celebrated 6th anniversary of the Children’s Traffic Training Park at Thane, Maharashtra. A cake cutting ceremony was organised to commemorate the occasion in the august presence of Shri Zafar M Kazi – Senior Motor Vehicle Inspector, RTO Thane, along with HMSI dignitaries and the company’s dealer partners.
In August 2018, Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India (HMSI) in association with Thane Municipal Corporation inaugurated the Children Traffic Training Park in Thane. Situated in the heart of the city, this Traffic Training Park has served as a beacon of education and practical training for participants. Its state-of-the-art facilities and interactive programs have empowered countless individuals with the knowledge and skills necessary for responsible and safe road behaviour.
Since its inception, nearly 1.31 lakh people across all age groups have been trained at the Traffic Training Park, enhancing road safety awareness in the city.
The 6th Anniversary Celebration is a testament to the park’s enduring impact on the community. This event featured engaging activities covering students of all age groups such as Bicycle Riding Activity, Riding Trainer Session, Female Safety Riding Activity, Safety Gear Awareness and Safety Riding Theory Sessions aimed at reinforcing the importance of road safety.
As HMSI looks ahead to the future, it remains dedicated to further expanding the reach and impact of its Traffic Training Park in Thane and beyond. Through continuous collaboration with stakeholders and the community, the company aims to cultivate a culture of responsible road behaviour and ensure safer roads for generations to come.
