Making roads safer for…

All road users

Project summary

Gloucestershire Constabulary received funding from The Road Safety Trust to conduct research to understand and overcome limitations of current Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) technology.

The Gloucestershire Constabulary Project is to more effectively tackle criminal and anti-social behaviour linked to road use by improving ANPR capability and increasing the value that the technology delivers in terms of reducing road risk and harm. It is hoped that the project outcomes will generate nationally and internationally scalable responses.

The project has clear pathways to securing benefit to road safety by delivering accountability for offending road use that would otherwise have evaded detection and by providing opportunities to educate or prosecute those that pose a danger to other road users.

Spot On Creative is a Northants-based creative team who have the hard-earned skills, expertise and industry knowledge that only come from having worked for years in advertising. It’s all managed by Lynne Dickens who has over 20 years’ experience in marketing communications, and ten years in website design and build, and creative team project management.

Lynne is also a qualified art historian and has some expertise in curating fine art exhibitions and producing all of the catalogues, posters and supporting material to create a successful event.

All the guys in our team have worked for one-man bands, SMEs and large blue-chip multinationals in just about every sector, field and industry. We can come up with great ideas, superb design and copy, and exceptional photography for anything from websites to email campaigns, branding to brochures – and everything in between.

And the beauty of Spot On Creative is that we’re big in creativity, experience and knowledge, but small in overheads and invoices. So we’re a much more sensible and affordable option for you than a larger advertising agency or marketing company.
