More and more people choose walking or cycling instead of driving, however, there are over 2,000 children bicyclists injured since 2005 and over 16,000 road accidence happened last year in South Australia.

To keep road safe for everyone, share the road equally, we create this application to help public find the best route to walking or cycling.

How it works:

Step 1. Plan Routes

•Plan the best three routes based on the start/end point•Calculate the travel time and distance based on the Google map API

Step 2. Calculate the Safe Route Points

•Check the streets, roads included in each route•Setup the score based on the Road Crash data•Combine with the weather situation•Combine with the Traffic Signals data•Combine with the Walking Trails or Footpath availability•Combine with the Bike & Pedestrian Paths availability•Calculate the Final Safe Route Points

Step 3. Display Result

•The routes has been marked with Green, Yellow and Red based on the Safe Route Point It will also tell user the money they saved, Calorie burned, and carbon dioxide emissions reduced. Video links here: https://vimeo.com/132628497
