ROAD INCIDENTS ACROSS VICTORIA

Road statistics are well reported, but are there trends and relationships around preventative measures such as speed limit restrictions, road upgrades and road safety cameras. We asked which one is the most effective at preventing incidents and what type of incidents.

We dove into the data to see if our hypothesis that road upgrades are likely to be the most effective.

Key questions considered were:

  • Is there a correlation between the number and type of road incidents and the speed limit? Eg - Fatalities / Serious injury / Minor or no injury as classified by VicRoads.
  • Does local government spending improve road conditions to prevent incidents?
  • Does the overall demographics (age / average income / gender) of local government areas have an impact on the number of incidents?
  • Do speed camera locations actually decrease crash numbers within a radius of 1km from the incidents v those outside 1 km of the speed camera?

Getting Started

JUPYTER NOTEBOOKS

#Warning: Please run 'JAMIE TAN Speed Camera Cleaning Codes' first before running the Merged Analysis Jupyter Notebook. (There is a file that is too big as an output and we are not able to upload the output file to the repository via GitHub.)

1 x Merged Analysis codes are in notebook named "Merged Analysis Code - Victoria Road Crash"

2 x Individual files containing cleaning codes used by Tas and Jamie on Demographic analysis and Speed Camera analysis respectively
