Harnessing data for safe, inclusive and sustainable mobility

A UNSW-led research team, supported through an APPI Policy Challenge Grant, has identified clear opportunities for commercial data to contribute to NSW’s transport, road safety and environmental policies, including reducing emissions, improving safety, and supporting active transport objectives. The report identifies a series of policy opportunities to improve infrastructure, strengthen data-sharing, and support inclusive policymaking, positioning NSW as a leader in safe, data-driven, and equitable urban mobility. The data was further used to pinpoint high-density areas, informing specific investments and guidelines to improve urban mobility pathways.
