Co-Designing a Regional Cycling Network Across 32 Councils
Too many files. The Department of Transport needed to coordinate a single Long Term Cycling Network across 32 local governments, each with different priorities and consultation processes.
Planning relied on emails, meetings, and static PDF maps. Every update triggered another round of files and manual reconciliation.
This made it difficult to:
GIS Pro deployed a collaborative web mapping platform that replaced file-based consultation with live, shared maps.
Each council and DoT worked in the same spatial environment, contributing, reviewing, and refining cycling routes in real time. All inputs were automatically consolidated into a single regional Long Term Cycling Network.
Draw & edit cycling routes in-browser
Comments, review, and change tracking
Automatic consolidation across LGAs
Progress tracking and conflict resolution
Simple, browser-based tools for drawing and refining cycling routes.
Commenting and change tracking at the route level.
Clear insight into completion status, gaps, and follow-ups.
Councils focus on local areas. DoT maintains a live regional view.
All council inputs flow into one unified LTCN dataset.
“I’ve worked with GIS Pro for the past two years on a significant State project, requiring the development of a range of online mapping portals to capture stakeholder inputs. GIS Pro have always been responsive in finding solutions to the technical challenges of the project and are real team players.”
