**A new Road Numbering System** The NSW Government has made significant improvement to how motorists can find their way across NSW. Transport for NSW has implemented a new system of alpha-numeric route numbering. This dataset provides you with the important changes to NSW, and additional information regarding the program. **Route numbers and road names** The existing 'shield' route markers have been replaced with a combination of a letter - either an M (motorway), A (route of national significance) or B (route of state significance) - and a number from 1 to 99. **NSW Route Number Map** 

The City of Sydney supports car sharing to enable more sustainable travel habits and helps keep businesses and residents connected. This data is provided by City of Sydney and provides the approximate location of car share bays and is not an indication of car availability.

This dataset provides data professionals and road safety analysts direct access to road crash data. Ready access to this data helps you take on more detailed research and evaluation that can contribute to better understanding of crashes and risks and improve road safety in the context of Safe Systems. Safe systems recognises that issues relating to infrastructure, vehicles, speed, and drivers cannot be viewed in isolation, but rather their interactions need to be considered. This data will provide a view of crash locations and environmental conditions as well as the involved vehicle types and the drivers and people who are injured or lose their lives. Publication of data will comply with the Privacy and Personal Information Protection Act 1998, which ensures sensitive information is not included in this proposed sets of data to be released. Five years of crash data will be initially published with updates to be made annually. Transport for NSW also has a significant amount of crash information available on the Centre for Road Safety website, which is presented in an easy to view way to investigate trends and factors contributing to crashes in NSW: [Interactive Crash Statistics](https://roadsafety.transport.nsw.gov.au/statistics/interactivecrashstats/index.html)

Speed cameras are speed enforcement tools that encourage drivers to slow down and help to reduce the road toll. All speed cameras in NSW are signposted. This dataset includes location points of Fixed Speed Cameras which are used at high-risk locations or in areas with a history of severe crashes and Red Light Speed Cameras which are installed to reduce crashes at high-risk intersections with traffic lights. Mobile Speed Camera locations (street and suburb) are also provided. This dataset also identifies which speed camera location points are in school zones across NSW. Speed camera locations are also available on the Centre for Road Safety website: [https://roadsafety.transport.nsw.gov.au/speeding/speedcameras/current-lo...](https://roadsafety.transport.nsw.gov.au/speeding/speedcameras/current-locations.html)
