EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
At Ancient City Communications, our team has geared up to help One Road actively address the issues on the
roads in St. Johns County in order to make it a safer place for cyclists. In order to do so, we must reach out to
St Johns County cyclists AND drivers.
The overall goal of this campaign is to improve bike safety in St. Augustine. This allows us to target a town in
St. Johns County that severely needs the help. We will achieve this by educating the community on road rules,
providing awareness on cyclists in our community, and giving away bike safety equipment to the target
audience.
The target audience for this campaign includes St. Johns County cyclists and drivers ages 15-75 and of all
genders.
In order to satisfy our goal of improving bike safety in St. Augustine, we have cultivated three specific and
objectives. First, we must communicate the three main points that locals in our community are not
knowledgeable of based on our primary data results. These include the following: drivers must give cyclists 3feet of space while passing, cyclists must ride with the flow of traffic, and children must wear helmets up to the
age of 16. This knowledge must be formally communicated to at least 150 St. Johns County residents within a
60-day period and applies to all ages. Next, we must get 100 St. Johns County drivers and cyclists ages 15-75
to pledge to follow road rules within a 60-day period. In order to completely satisfy our goal, lastly we must
provide at least 10 sets of bike lights and 10 helmets to St. Johns County residents of all ages within that same
60-day period.
How will we meet satisfy these objectives? We must expose One Road through events and communication
tactics that will reach their target audience. This includes making the core information that fulfills the
knowledge gaps easily accessible and easy to understand. To fulfill One Roads objective pertaining to
collecting pledges, we must make it convenient for the pledger and create a sense of pride for the pledge.
Making bike safety equipment easily attainable by the St. Johns County residents who actively cycle will fulfill
part of the objectives is an another important strategy for One Road. Since some families cannot afford bike
safety equipment, One Road will collect sponsorships for these resources. This will be done by conveniently
offering free equipment to local cyclists during both events after creating engagements with locals to see if they
need it. These mentioned tactics will be executed at the planned events. We believe One Road needs a simple
design to meet the needs of our strategies. In response, we have created an easy-to-read design. Both the event
and communication aspects of this campaign will work together help One Road achieve its main goal.

SITUATION ANALYSIS: PROBLEM STATEMENT

North East Florida is the most dangerous place for bicyclists in the United States. St. Johns County
alone has the highest rate of bicycle deaths in the country. Through Flagler College, the One Road
Campaign was launched in 2013 to raise awareness of this issue and improve bike safety for everyone. We are also working to educate bicyclists and drivers in the area about the local road laws as they
relate to motorists and cyclists. However, currently there is a gap in knowledge of road rules with both
bicyclists and motorists. There are many ways to educate, improve bike safety and overall help decrease bicycle related accidents.
The goal for the One Road Campaign is to target local residents in St. Johns County and improve bike
safety in the city of Saint Augustine. Through the support of the city, as well as donors, One Road can
use various methods to spread awareness and knowledge.
The issue will be resolved within the campaign by targeting populated areas throughout the Historic
District of St. Augustine. The main priority is to increase knowledge of road rules and improve bike
safety. The campaign will use a combination of traditional and non-traditional advertising methods to
promote both road rules and bike safety.
If One Road can improve bike safety in St. Augustine, St. Johns County can become a safer and less
dangerous place to ride a bike. Through a comprehensive media plan, and various creatives, this campaign seeks to spread awareness and knowledge across North East Florida, ultimately leading to a
safer road for bicyclists and motorists for years to come.

RESEARCH: PRIMARY
METHODS
Primary research was the main component of this data collection. It was conducted in the form of an
online survey created through the software Qualtrics. The survey consisted of sixteen questions that
were all formatted in multiple choice forms. Demographic questions were asked to determine residence, age, and gender. A discrimination question was placed at the beginning of the survey asking if
the respondent lived in St. Augustine or St. Johns County. If they answered no, they would be moved
to the end of the survey so there could be no outliers in the data. After demographic questions were
asked, a series of questions were presented. These questions were based off of the bicycle traffic laws
for St. Johns County. The questions were phrased as to ask the respondent what they think the bicycle
traffic laws are in the area. They were all phrased in multiple choice formats.

ANALYSIS
The survey distributed had 87% respondents that were from the St. Johns County and St. Augustine
region. The 13% living outside of the target geographic area did not affect survey results, as they were
taken out of the survey to prevent outliers and create an accurate report. Demographic questions indicated the two highest age populations in St. Augustine are seventeen to twenty five year olds as 32%
of the population and 40-59 year olds as 30% of the population. Females were also the highest number of respondents, as 70% were women and 30% were men,Fifty respondents indicated that they
drive every day in St. Augustine and St. Johns County. This means that 52% of the respondents are
active car drivers. When asked how often they ride a bike, respondents highest response was I dont
own a bike with a 29% response rate. The next highest response was several times a week at 18%
of respondents.

RESEARCH: SECONDARY
METHODS
This research involved both primary and secondary data. Secondary data was collected from The
Pedestrian and Bicycle Information Center as well as the St. Augustine Bike Plan created by the St.
Augustine Government and the North Florida Transportation Planning Organization. American Fact
Finder from the United States Census Bureau was also used for population numbers.

ANALYSIS
Respondents were also asked Up to what age are you legally required to wear a helmet?. The highest response was you are never required to wear a helmet when riding a bike at 34% of responses.
The next highest response was 13 at 30%. Another question of importance was How many bicyclist
are allowed to ride beside each other on the road? 54% of respondents said only one bicyclist was
allowed to take the bike lane. 43% of respondents answered two. The question If there is no bike
lane present on the road and there is no room for vehicles to pass with three feet of space, where
should a bicyclist ride? 78% responded right-hand curb while 21% responded middle of the
road.

FUNDRAISING
Before we could head out and begin fundraising for the campaign, the ACC team needed to
create a budget based on what we needed to raise funds for. Everything on the budget could
be linked directly back to accomplishing our goal. After the budget was finalized, a donation
letter was written including our campaign mission, goal, objectives and how we planned to
accomplish them. We included the budget in the donation letter so prospective donors would
know exactly what their contributions were going to. Then, Shelton and Katherine, the Directors of Development, began tackling donations by creating a schedule. They decided to split
up and tackle local businesses geographically to be the time efficient. Shelton approached
downtown businesses, while Katherine enquired with businesses on the island. To their surprise, local bike shops were not as generous as theyd expected them to be. Businesses that
contributed of $100 or more would be featured on the back of our One Road shirts. When
the team used personal connections with businesses owners in the area and the incentives
of the shirts is when the fundraising began picking up.
After we collected most of the donations, we wrote a thank you letter to show the
donors we appreciate their contributions. For non-profits, like ourselves, donations are key to
reaching our goals.

CREATIVES: CREATIVE BRIEF

One Road is a student-run organization that originated two years ago in order to create
awareness and increase safety protocol in St. Augustine and St. Johns County. By
making the One Road campaign interactive through our events and website and
interesting through our creatives and social media One Road strives to capture our
target audience and effectively increase bike safety.

Goals & Objectives

To see a difference in the attitude between bikers and drivers

To create and promote One Road Safe Augustine brand awareness in the community.

To make creatives that interest our audience and stimulate further action, for example seeing
our flyer and then visiting our website to learn more.
Key Issues
-Getting community members to stop and interact at our events.
-Following city ordinances for our events on public streetssuch as St. George Street, and abiding by
private property rules set forth by Flagler College and Scratch Kitchen for our pop-up events. These
rules become issues when they hinder us from specific event components such as tents and microphones.
-Walking traffic in St. Augustine generates a lot of people outside our target market (non-locals).
Why are we here?

To promote a bike safety campaign that creates awareness and increases safety protocol in St.
Augustine and St. Johns County.
! 24 of 47
!

To educate cyclists on the importance of riding with traffic, avoiding distractions and using
proper safety equipment.

To emphasize the need for 3 feet passing distance between drivers and cyclists as well as an
increased awareness and patience when driving.

To generate a more positive attitude towards biking and bike safety in St. Augustine.

Who are we targeting?

Bicyclists and motorists in Saint Johns County / Northeast Florida

Individuals ages 5-65+

Key Insights
Many St. Augustine locals find biking to be a great way to navigate the city. We noticed
through this campaign, however that the population of St. Augustine does not always know the correct
rules of biking in St. Augustine and bike safety protocol for drivers. With this in mind, a huge part of
our campaign was to fill this knowledge gap in order to make St. Augustine a safer more harmonious
city to bike and drive.

The Look
The look behind our campaign is clean and modern. The main colors for our campaign are
burnt orange and royal blue and there is strong use of white space in order to maintain the clean and
modern look. The use of these colors was meant to mimic the St. Augustine Snapchat Geo-tag in order to generate familiarity and attract specifically St. Augustine residents. The font styles that we
used are easy to read and through use of color and bold characters we are able to successfully attract
the reader to specific areas of each creative.
