It’s widely accepted throughout the industry that traditional sources of road safety data - namely KSI and Stats19 - have their pitfalls. They are incomplete, delayed, and do not deliver the comprehensive and timely insights needed to make the informed decisions and take the necessary actions, to deliver Vision Zero, swiftly and cost-effectively.

In this session, Shane Foley will present how Transport for West Midlands is using the latest developments in AI and computer vision to make informed and measurable road safety improvements. This approach includes data on near miss events in real time, and speed and movement behaviours, that complement KSI and Stats19 insights. Join Shane and discover how AI is revolutionising road safety management, and how one of the UK’s largest public transport authorities is embracing this technology for a smarter, safer and more sustainable transport future.
