MAST Online
MAST also seeks to encourage best practice in the field, including empowering professionals at all levels by
providing direct data access. This shared information base encourages co-operative working across agencies
and supports innovative thinking. It also reduces the workload of processing routine queries accurately, such as
Freedom of Information requests and press enquiries.
To compliment MAST’s unrivalled value RSA, along with the related specialist consultancy firm Agilysis, have
developed a broad suite of road safety support services. These services include not only analytical reports,
evaluation projects and research papers focussed on supporting the real needs of the transport safety sector, but
also extends to front line delivery. A complete suite of educational and publicity interventions has been developed,
during a long and productive ongoing partnership with local authority colleagues under the Safer Roads banner.
These products are designed and evaluated using intelligence-led principles and seek to put into practice the
latest in behavioural change techniques.
RSA and Agilysis continue to work extensively with local, national and international partners, building on principles
established by MAST. Partner organisations include a diverse range of names, including: the UK Department for
Transport, the International Transport Forum, Highways England, the Scottish and Welsh governments, the Road
Safety Foundation, Transport for London, The RAC Foundation, Transport for Greater Manchester, Road Safety
Great Britain and many more. The team’s work has contributed to multiple award-winning schemes, including
six Prince Michael Road Safety Awards. Recognition came most recently from ITF, as Agilysis’ George Ursachi
was named as Young Researcher of the Year. However, the team remains committed to MAST’s original guiding
principle: to let the data tell its story.
