🏆 Revolutionary Insights for Road Safety & Active Travel with VivaCity's award-winning Near Miss data
 
Traditional road safety management has relied on reactive action, based on after-the-fact KSI data. VivaCity's Smart Road Safety solution is here to make that reliance a thing of the past. 
 
Our real-time data insights help to transform road safety schemes by detecting incidents before they happen, accelerating local authorities towards their Net Zero and Active Travel goals. 
 
This cutting edge technology is being deployed by colleagues in the Salford Road Safety team in a feasibility study to improve pedestrian safety on Leicester Rd.
