During project delivery phase, what really impressed me was that despite the fact I had some solid ideas about how I thought things could/should work on the site, you guys were able to suggest alternatives based on your skills/knowledge/experience. Invariably, that's what we would go with!

VicRoads has engaged Wave Digital on a number of mobile projects that effectively make Victoria’s road network more usable.

Awards

Overview

Road Closures and Traffic Alerts: Responsive web application for mobile and desktop users.

MobileTraffic: A mobile website showing travel times and traffic alerts to smartphone users.

VicTraffic: A native iPhone version of the MobileTraffic app.

M80 Mobile: A mobile website for the M80 upgrade.

LiveTraffic: A mini-site dedicated to traffic cameras.

Road Closures & Traffic Alerts is like the road user's crystal ball. It combines the familiar Google Maps API with VicRoads’ wealth of traffic and road data in a thoroughly usable and accessible app that helps drivers and riders stay out of trouble.

We used cutting-edge responsive design techniques, and an empathetic approach to user experience design, to build an app that's effortless to use, whether you're sitting at your office computer planning the commute home, or parked on a roadside slightly west of some town you've never heard of, swiping frantically at your phone.

Throughout the project, the Wave Digital developers remained in constant contact with the project team in VicRoads. The developers found VicRoads’ deliverable and executable requirements both realistic and manageable, which provided for a smooth-flowing project. Expert suggestions made by Wave Digital developers provided real value to the project and gave the client an award-winning result.
