ROAD SAFETY ACTION GROUP
Road Safety Action Group Inner Melbourne (RSAGIM) is a local community road safety group established as part of Victoria’s Community Road Safety Partnership.
It works collaboratively across the four member municipalities (City of Melbourne, City of Port Phillip, City of Yarra and City of Stonnington) to identify and address key road safety needs and priorities. RSAGIM’s priority for action is vulnerable road users – pedestrians, cyclists, public transport users and motorcyclists.
RSAGIM sought to commission a project that would respond to the heightened vulnerability of pedestrians in the night environment by providing safe and accessible travel information.
OUTR (Office of Urban Transformations Research) is a Research Laboratory in the School of Architecture + Design at RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia that explores design as an agent of understanding and responding to the challenges of a rapidly changing complex world through live projects in collaboration with a range of industry and government stakeholders.
Our work is the exploration of design as an agent for imagining better ways of living in the world that understands and responds to the challenges of a rapidly changing complex urban fabric.
The approach we have developed is for the generation of sustainable urban futures for living through a practice of design that is informed from the ‘ground-up’ through a careful and rigorous exploration of economic, environmental, and social complex systems that constitute the dynamic medium that is the city.

RSAGIM commissioned OUTR (Office of Urban Transformations Research) in the School of Architecture and Design at RMIT University Melbourne, to develop a prototype for a pedestrian wayfinding tool – the Urban Navigator mobile phone App. The aim of the App will be to provide the user with safe travel information.
It is anticipated that the App will be designed as a live, interactive travel guide that provides information on:
– Up to date transport options– Transport availability by day and night– Transport locations– Alternative routes
RSAGIM gratefully acknowledges the support of the Victorian Community Road Safety Partnership for this project.
