Daniel & Luke

Who: Students who cycle to school or would like to and their parents

What: Some routes are dangerous/boring and children can’t cycle due to safety issuesWhen: Journey to school

Where: Newcastle upon TyneWhy: Routes are dangerous and kids go in rush hour

Did you know that over 2000 children are killed or injured on their way to school. This happens because routes are not

safe due to heavy traffic and dangerous routes.

Mini Elevator Pitch

The Appcredibles , is developing a mobile appto help pupils, who can’t or are worried to cycle to school, who have to suffer with busy roads/ accidents to cycle with safety to

school with help from friends, parents and our app.

How can you reduce the accident number?

Children can set the safest route to school to follow and will be notified wit a unique sound/vibration so they know when they are

entering a accident hotspot or busy area. With this unique sound they will know what it means, not a friend sending them a text.

Out of the children we interviewed they all said they would use it.

Map my ride is a bike route finder but does not give the safest.

Give out safest and quickest possible route, sharing routes with friends

so you can meet up. Plus a notification with a unique sound so you know what it means. If you hear it, it means you have entered an

accident hotspot or busy road.

Home screen give’s you the option to view

You saved routes, share routes withYou friends and set your alert. The tabs

Consist of Route finder, Traffic Update andAlerts.

After speaking to professional programmers we believe this app can be

made.It will use gps and google maps

Cycle safe Newcastle will be a free app and we will make a profit out of adverts

Charities like sustrans can post adverts up and so can bike shops.

We could make posters to advertise in bike shops and could be put up

in schools.
