New technology to provide direct line to expert panel

The State Government will use innovative technology to collaborate with the public as part of the Indian Ocean Drive Highway Safety Review.

Road Safety Minister Michelle Roberts today launched an interactive map that will enable drivers and local residents to have their say on safety concerns about the tourist drive, where six lives have been lost so far this year.

Users contribute to the interactive map by uploading a photograph of their area of concern, then provide a brief description of the issue and select the location on the map.

The information gathered will be directly fed to the Indian Ocean Drive Highway Safety Review Committee and will help inform the final report to be presented to the Minister next month.

The interactive map can be accessed from the Road Safety Commission website until the end of October 2017, and can be embedded or shared via the internet or social media.
