Moving Melton Digital Prospectus
Melton City Council
The award for Technical and Digital Innovation is awarded to Melton City Council, for the Moving Melton Digital Prospectus. The City of Melton is Australia’s fastest growing municipality, however the delivery of transport infrastructure is not keeping up with the growth of the local population and employment precincts. The Moving Melton Digital Prospectus is an interactive website presenting research and evidence for the road, rail, bus and active transport projects that are urgently needed in the City of Melton. The platform was designed and created by City of Melton staff, and has assisted Council in advocating for investment in major transport projects in an innovative and interactive way. Through the use of graphics, mapping and interactive data, the resulting product provides a more compelling product than a traditional paper-based strategy. The Moving Melton Digital Prospectus has helped Council take its work to Ministers, local members of Parliament, government departments, and research academics, and is a worthy award winner in the Technical and Digital Innovation Category.
