Smart ROAD SAFETY SOLUTIONS FOR ANZ
Move Beyond Crash Data. Achieve Proactive Safety with Real-Time Intelligence.
Stop relying solely on reactive KSI statistics. Use AI to diagnose the root cause – and prevent collisions before they happen.
Applications Built for Your Priorities
Proactive Analysis & Measures
Transform road safety from reactive to proactive with high quality, real-time datasets, including our award-winning near-miss technology. Moving beyond historic KSI data empowers you to identify and prioritise high risk locations, implement targeted, preventative interventions before incidents occur, and continuously evaluate their effectiveness post-implementation.
School Zones & Safe School Streets
Turn School Streets trials into permanent schemes by understanding their performance using continuous 24/7 multimodal data (including classified counts and speeds, active travel tracking, near-miss detection, and dwell times). Objectively proving reduced congestion, enhanced safety, and increased walking and cycling around schools.
30km/h Trials & Monitoring
Build the evidence base for lower speed limits with continuous, objective data. Capture classified speeds, near-miss interactions, and active travel volumes before, during, and after a 30km/h trial, giving you a clear, defensible picture of behavioural change. Move beyond anecdotal feedback and demonstrate measurable safety improvements to justify permanent interventions.
Placemaking & Healthy Streets
Understand how people actually use shared urban spaces, not just how vehicles move through them. VivaCity datasets give you objective evidence on pedestrian safety and comfort, active travel uptake, and the safety of mixed-use environments. Whether you are evaluating a new Healthy Street or pedestrianised town centre, continuous monitoring replaces assumptions with proof.
Real-Time Risk Diagnosis
VivaCity’s Smart Road Safety solution empowers you to take a proactive approach to protecting vulnerable road users, accelerating your Vision Zero goals.
Near Miss Detection
What it tells you: Identifies and quantifies specific interactions between vulnerable road users (pedestrians/cyclists) and vehicles before a crash occurs. It uses multiple metrics, like Time to Collision (TTC) and Post-Encroachment Time (PET), to measure severity.
How it helps: Prevent Fatalities. This is a proactive diagnostic tool that gives you a much better understanding of risk exposure in real-time, helping to prevent incidents from becoming KSIs.
Tracks & Path Data
What it tells you: Visualizes the movements (desire lines) of VRUs, illustrating how they interact with road space, lanes, and infrastructure.
How it helps: Diagnose Infrastructure Flaws. Determine if existing cycle lanes or crossings are being used as intended, or if natural crossing points pose an unexpected safety risk. Identify where to put new crossings in their most natural location to minimise jaywalking.
Classified Speed Analysis
What it tells you: Accurate speed metrics, including mean and 85th percentile speeds, for all monitored modes.
How it helps: Assess Risk Exposure. Smart Road Safety goes beyond looking at speed limits. Analyse if high speeds correlate with high near-miss rates, providing empirical evidence for speed reduction zones.
Classified Counts (Multimodal)
What it tells you: Provides 24/7/365 volumes of pedestrians, cyclists, e-scooters, and motorised vehicles.
How it helps: Calculate Accurate Risk Ratios. Combine counts with near-miss data to understand the volume of risk relative to the volume of movement, allowing you to prioritise where to act proactively.
Why Trust VivaCity for Road Safety?
We provide the high-quality, precise data required to make evidence-backed decisions that save lives.
A Proactive Partner
Our solution acts as the missing link in building the full picture of how dangerous specific sites are, in real-time. Our multimodal data focuses on risk exposure of vulnerable road users, perfectly aligned with the current pressing Vision Zero and sustainable transport goals.
Holistic Data from One Sensor
You can empower your road safety strategy without installing separate hardware. Our sensors deliver rich classified counts, tracks, speed, and Near Miss features from a single piece of hardware, maximizing your value.
Root Cause Analysis
Near Miss data provides video footage (blurred for privacy) that allows you to zoom into specific conflicts and understand the severity and cause of the interaction, giving you actionable insights to mitigate the issues by tackling their root causes.
Privacy Protected
The technology employs edge processing, ensuring all video footage is processed and immediately anonymized on the device. No recognisable images are stored or shared. VivaCity is fully compliant with the most rigorous privacy regulations in ANZ and Europe.

Prove the success of your School Streets
Every School Street trial faces the same challenge: community support is high, but the evidence base is thin. The VivaCity School Streets Starter Kit gives Active Travel and Road Safety teams the methodology, case studies, and framework mapping needed to build an undeniable case — from the first sensor installation to the final council report.
