The Road Casualty Review 2006

1.0 Foreword 1.1

Bristol City Council is committed to making our roads safer for everyone and to encouraging choice in travelling round the city. Improving safety and reducing the number of accidents on Bristol’s roads is a high priority within our integrated transport strategy and also within the Joint Local Transport Plan.

1.2

In the year 2006, over 1,800 people were injured on Bristol’s roads and we recognise that all of these accidents cause human suffering. We support the Government’s casualty reduction targets set out in their road safety strategy ‘Tomorrow’s Roads: Safer for Everyone’ by working to reduce road deaths and injuries, especially concentrating on improving the safety of children.

1.3

This document reports on the progress we have made towards targets set out in the City Council’s Road Safety Strategy. Working together, and with the support of government, the police, schools, voluntary groups and individual road users (pedestrians, cyclists, motorcyclists and drivers) we can all play our part in making Bristol a safer city for everyone.

2.0 Acknowledgment 2.1

Bristol City Council is grateful to officers and staff of the Avon & Somerset Constabulary who attended the road accidents and collect the data which is presented here. Since the data is collected by Avon & Somerset Constabulary, its accuracy cannot be guaranteed by the City Council.

2.2

The City Council is also grateful to Atkins Highways and Transportation staff who process the data for the Department for Transport (DfT) on behalf of the highway authority and provide records for the Bristol City Council road casualty database.

3.0 Introduction 3.1

3.2

3.3

Road Safety is an issue that concerns every person in Bristol. Every resident and visitor uses the City’s transport infrastructure to some extent, whether as a pedestrian, rider, passenger or driver. Safety on the transport system is paramount for all users. This commitment is documented within the Road Safety Strategy contained within the Joint Local Transport Plan which was published in March 2006.

3.3.3 Consideration is then given to other issues which help to inform the road safety work programme – partnerships and priority areas for action. 3.3.4 In Section 2 – The Casualty Report, a brief summary of 2006 is included before the data is analysed in terms of casualties by severity, route, area and other factors. 3.3.5 Consideration is then given to casualties by age and user group in more detail.

The provision of a road safety service is a statutory duty of local highway authorities in Great Britain. Bristol City Council has the duty of promoting road safety in Bristol on all roads. The City Council also has responsibility for traffic management and maintenance on all roads except trunk roads and motorways (M32, M49, M5 and part of the A4) which are the responsibility of the Highways Agency.

3.3.6 Finally in this section a comprehensive list of Injury Accident Cluster Sites is provided. 3.3.7 In Section 3 – Directory, the costs of road traffic accidents in Bristol are summarised. 3.3.8 A glossary of terms is included along with costs for providing road safety information and road safety contacts in the Bristol area.

The purpose of this report is to set out Bristol’s casualty statistics and to report on progress towards the current casualty reduction targets.

3.3.1 In Section 1 – Service Assessment, the report outlines steps towards the targets set in 2000 to be reached by 2010 and discusses the further targets indicated within the Joint Local Transport Plan and the progress required to reach these. Note: The Road Safety Strategy section within the Joint Local Transport Plan should be referred to for information on how it is proposed to meet these targets. 3.3.2 It then looks at how the results have been affected over time by changes in reporting methodology.

The Road Casualty Review 2006

4.0 Background 4.1

The statutory duty of the City Council includes and stresses the importance of road safety. The following are extracts from the 1988 Road Traffic Act, Section 39 (as amended by the Road Traffic Act 1991):

Bristol’s Road Safety Team combines Road Safety Engineering and Road Safety Education, Training and Publicity (ETP). 4.2

Road safety engineers manage and analyse the injury accident data presented in this document. The road accident database is routinely interrogated to identify problem sites and areas of concern such as injury accident cluster sites, and a list of ‘local safety schemes’ is proposed for treatable sites that could be expected to produce a significant reduction in accidents. (See Priority Areas for Action – Section 9.0).

4.3

Road safety officers work with all sections of the community from school children to the elderly to try to reduce road casualties in the long term. The Road Safety Team is based in the Traffic Management team within the Department of Planning, Transport and Sustainable Development. More details of the above activities can be found on the City Council’s Road Safety pages Road Safety and elsewhere on the City Council’s website.

4.4

It should be noted that only personal injury accidents, which were reported to the police and have been forwarded to the Council, are represented by accident data. An accident must involve one or more vehicles, occur on the public highway and involve injury to one or more persons. Damage only accidents and near misses are not recorded. Research indicates that for every injury accident there are estimated to be over 17 damage-only accidents on built-up roads.

39 (1) ‘Each local authority must prepare and carry out a programme of measures designed to promote road safety and may make contributions towards the cost of measures for promoting road safety taken by other authorities or bodies.’ Measures include education and training, road safety audits and road safety engineering. (2) Each local authority: a) ‘must carry out studies into accidents arising out of the use of vehicles on roads or parts of roads other than trunk roads, within their area; b) must, in the light of those studies, take such measures as appear to the authority to be appropriate to prevent accidents, including the dissemination of information and advice relating to the use of roads, the giving of practical training to road users or any class or description of road users, the construction, improvement, maintenance or repair of roads for which they are the highway authority and other measures taken in the exercise of their powers for controlling, protecting or assessing the movement of traffic on roads, and; c) in constructing new roads, must take such measures as appear to the authority to be appropriate to reduce the possibilities of such accidents when the roads come into use.’

5.0 Targets 5.1

In the year 2000, Central Government produced the road safety strategy ‘Tomorrow’s Roads: Safer for Everyone’. This set targets to be achieved by 2010, compared with the average of 1994-98 as follows:

5.1.1 Target 1 – a 40% reduction in the number of people killed or seriously injured (KSI) in road accidents; 5.1.2 Target 2 - a 50% reduction in the number of child KSIs; 5.1.3 Target 3 - a 10% reduction in the slight casualty rate, expressed as the number of people slightly injured per 100 million vehicle kilometres. 5.2

Bristol City Council adopted these targets and adopted additional targets, which are included within the Joint Local Transport Plan. These targets are set jointly for the four participating Authorities (Bath and North East Somerset Council, Bristol City Council, North Somerset Council and South Gloucestershire Council) and have been approved by the Government under the overarching Government targets for 2010 (targets 1,2 & 3 as above).

5.2.1 20% reduction on the 2001-2004 average number of KSI’s (all ages) by 2010. 5.2.2 25% reduction on the 2001-2004 average number of child KSI’s by 2010. 5.2.3 No increase in the number of slight casualties on the 2001-2004 average by 2010.

Table 3 - Presents the 2010 slight casualty rate reduction target progress 6.2

Target 1 & 4a - reduction in the number of people killed or seriously injured (KSI) in road collisions.

6.4.3 Whilst progress continues to be made on total casualty numbers, slight casualty numbers remain above the target required to bring the rate down sufficiently to meet the 2010 target of 66 slight casualties per million vehicle kilometres.

6.2.1 The number of total KSI’s in 2006 continued to fall with a 4% reduction from the previous year.

6.4.4 Accidents involving speed related factors accounted for an estimated 26% of the total 1,465 accidents in Bristol in 2006.

6.2.2 A 38% reduction in KSI casualties will need to be achieved over the next 4 years in order to reach the 2010 target. Progress suggest that this target is likely to prove challenging. 6.3

6.4.5 Speed related accidents are those which have been reported by the police to have the contributory factors of ““in a hurry”, “excessive speed”, “aggressive driving” and/or to have been coded as a “loss of control” accident. The Police do not attend all road traffic accidents and it is therefore believed that this figure is underestimated and that many more accidents are speed related. Research indicates that one-third of all accidents are caused as a direct result of excess or inappropriate speed.

Target 2 - 50% reduction in the number of children killed and seriously injured.

6.3.1 The number of children killed or seriously injured decreased dramatically to 17 in 2006, from 25 in 2005. The interim target for 2006 was met and the 2010 target was almost achieved. However, whilst these statistics are very encouraging the figures involved are relatively small and as such can be subject to significant yearly fluctuations and should not be read in isolation. 6.4

Target 3 - 10% reduction in the slight casualty rate, expressed as the number of people slightly injured per 100 million vehicle kilometres.

6.4.1 The number of total casualties fell by just under 1% again in 2006, although slight casualties only fell by less than 0.5%. 6.4.2 The slight casualty rate remains at around 74 slight casualties per million vehicle kilometres. 7

7.0 Interpretation of Results 7.1

Fluctuations from year to year highlight the need for the careful monitoring of accidents and it is therefore not advisable to consider individual years in isolation. Trends over three to five years should be regarded as a minimum.

7.2

Bristol’s Killed & Seriously Injured (KSI) History.

7.2.4 As a result of this change, the number of killed and seriously injured (KSI) casualties in Bristol rose by 34% from 2001 to 2002, yet the total number of casualties rose by less than 1%. This represented a significant change in the proportion of KSI casualties to total casualties, known as the severity ratio. Over the next two years the Bristol KSI casualty total and severity ratio continued to fluctuate as Bristol continued to improve the accuracy of it’s data. (Table 5)

7.2.1 In 1998 Bristol experienced a 25% rise in total casualties, from 1609 in 1997 to 2010 in 1998. This rise represented a stepped increase as the average number of casualties for the three years from 1998 to 2000 was 23% higher than the three years prior to 1998. This change in casualty totals was considered to be the result of reorganisation and improvement in the collection of accident data collection by the Avon and Somerset Constabulary. Similar increases experienced by the other Local Authorities across the Avon and Somerset region helped to confirm this. 7.2.2 As the Central Government casualty reduction targets are based on the average totals from 1994 to 1998, the base totals are weighted more heavily to the time prior to the stepped increase in Bristol’s casualty totals. This means the resulting casualty reduction targets to be achieved by 2010 are considered artificially low and are therefore more difficult to achieve. 7.2.3 Improved accident severity reporting has contributed to the large fluctuations in KSI casualties since 2001. In 2002, with agreement from Bristol City Council, the accident recording form used by the Avon and Somerset police was altered to include a description of serious injuries for the first time.

Table 5 - Bristol’s KSI History 7.2.5 On 1 January 2005, a new national form was introduced to all police authorities including Avon and Somerset. This form does not include a description of serious injuries as part of the severity classification section. Results from 2005 and 2006 data (in table 5) indicate that the severity ratio has reverted back to pre-2002 levels.

7.2.7 As a result of the various changes to the collection of casualty data from 2001 to 2006 (Table 5) and the ensuing variations in KSI casualty totals and severity ratios, it follows that the KSI totals from 2002 to 2004 are not directly comparable with the KSI totals from years prior to 2002. This includes the 1994 to 1998 totals on which Government targets are based. It is therefore considered useful to present recalculated KSI totals for 2002 to 2004 (Table 6) for comparison.

7.2.6 The City Council Road Safety team is very concerned about it's findings and is keen to establish confidence in it's KSI totals, particularly because of the emphasis placed on KSI casualties by the National targets. The Department for Transport has been notified of these concerns and has been supplied with copies of the investigation work that was carried out.

8.0 Partnerships 8.1

West of England Road Safety Partnership

safety to implement initiatives as part of a wider road safety strategy encompassing education & publicity, engineering and enforcement.

The four Local Council Authorities of Bath & North East Somerset Council, Bristol City Council, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire Council have agreed to work together to improve road safety throughout the area.

It aims to build on the successes of the Avon & Somerset Safety Camera Partnership and make use of resources presently focused on reducing speed to achieve greater reductions in road traffic accidents and casualties.

The Partnership (incorporating the four Local Authorities, NHS Primary Care Trusts, Fire & Rescue, HM Court Service, Police, Highways Agency and West of England Partnership) will enable Partners to work together to optimise road safety activities and ensure that the Road Safety Strategy of the Joint Local Transport Plan (JLTP) is fully implemented. 8.2

It is anticipated that improved co-operation and collaboration should maximise the impact of education, training and publicity campaigns and expenditure on road safety. Pooling of knowledge will lead to greater justification for enforcement to back up road safety schemes and campaigns. Effective enforcement and the support of the Police is fundamental to achieving a reduction in casualties.

Background In December 2005 the Government announced that safety camera activities and partnerships are to be integrated into a wider road safety delivery process with funding for safety cameras being provided to local authorities through the Local Transport Plan (LTP) from April 2007. This will give local authorities more freedom and flexibility to pursue the most appropriate mix of road safety measures to reduce road casualties in their area.

8.3

The Government is enhancing the overall level of funding for road safety in accordance with road safety needs, such as the number of casualties and the quality of LTP submissions. Safety cameras still have an important role to play in reducing speeding and collisions at locations where excess or inappropriate speed represents a serious road safety problem, but as part of an overall road safety strategy.

8.4

What the Partnership will do •

Implement the Road Safety Strategy Action Plan in the JLTP.

•

Implement a road safety education and publicity programme.

•

Procure camera enforcement services from the Avon & Somerset Safety Camera Partnership.

•

Provide recommendations for allocating LTP funding to schemes.

•

Oversee the monitoring, analysis and review of effectiveness of casualty reduction schemes.

Safecam (formerly the Avon and Somerset Safety Camera Partnership) The original Avon and Somerset Safety Camera Partnership was launched in 2002 by the local authorities, health authorities, police, Magistrate’s Court Service, Crown

The Road Safety Partnership will bring together professionals involved in road 12

The Road Casualty Review 2006

Prosecution Service and Highways Agency with the aim of reducing deaths and injuries on roads through enforcement of speed limits and education. The establishment of the West of England Road Safety Partnership has taken on much of this work, although the enforcement of speed limits and red traffic signals is now provided on behalf of the partnership by Safecam. www.safecam.org.uk According to the results recently published by Safecam there has been a 10% reduction in road accidents at safety camera sites (speed and red light cameras) in the Bristol area (based on data for the 2004/2005 financial year) when compared to the three years prior to Safety Camera Partnership commencing operations. There are currently 12 roadside safety cameras and 21 Red light camera sites in Bristol, with mobile speed detection cameras being used at another 50 locations. The success of the project will continue to be judged directly on how far traffic speeds and road casualties are reduced, particularly when speed and red light jumping is a significant factor in many crashes.

13

The Road Casualty Review 2006

9.0 Priority Areas for Action 9.1

Each year a number of casualty reduction led schemes are included in the Road Safety section of the Traffic Management work programme in order to try to help meet our casualty reduction targets.

9.2

The City Council will continue to focus its Road Safety activities on locations with high accident levels, high severity ratios, child casualties and in areas with a high index of multiple deprivation. child casualties and in areas with a high index of multiple deprivation

9.3

Additional Factors Considered when selecting sites are: •

Other/future work programmes – the Traffic Management annual work programme looks to maximise road safety benefit by engaging with, and influencing, other/multiple work programmes where possible.

•

Future development – Traffic Management annual work programme looks to gain road safety benefit from developer contributions wherever possible.

•

Maintenance issues – if there are two similar schemes under consideration for the work programme, then it may be that the site that is in the worst maintenance condition is chosen.

Table 8 – Accident Rates (on principle roads) per Km - 2004/2005 Notes: The casualty rates shown above are based on geographical road lengths, ignoring additional highway lengths at dual carriageways, roundabouts etc. Rank order of casualty and KSI rate per km (1 is the highest). Eurorap rating is taken from work carried out by The AA Motoring trust which assesses Europe’s roads in terms of safety. (It should be noted that the road lengths used for Eurorap roads may be different).

EuroRAP is an international not-for profit association formed by motoring organisations and road authorities in Europe to provide a safety rating for Motorways and major roads across Europe.

The Road Casualty Review 2006

13.0 Casualties by Area - Deprivation 13.1 Evidence shows there to be a strong link between social deprivation and casualty numbers. Index of Multiple Deprivation is calculated using weighted indicators on income, employment, health, education, housing, crime and environment. Formerly this was carried out on a ward by ward basis, however, from 2004 deprivation data is now calculated using smaller Super Output Areas (SOAs), representing readily identifiable geographical areas with similar populations.

13.2 There are 252 SOAs in Bristol but, for the purpose of analysis, we concentrate on the most deprived and least deprived 10%, (Index of Multiple Deprivation – Bristol Rankings). 13.3 The casualty numbers in different casualty classes were examined and for each casualty class in each group an average number of casualties per SOA was calculated. Also calculated was a percentage figure for each casualty class within each group expressed as a percentage of the total casualties in that class.

For further information about SOA’s in Bristol, click on the following link SOA’s

13.4 The most significant findings are shown below.

Most deprived 10% of SOAs

Least deprived 10% of SOAs

Experienced an average of 14 accidents per SOA

Experienced an average of 4 accidents per SOA

19% of all KSI’s took place in the most deprived 10% of SOAs

4% of child casualties were located in the least deprived 10% of SOAs

25% of slight accidents took place in the most deprived 10% of SOAs

8% of slight accidents took place in the least deprived 10% of SOAs

13.5 The average number of casualties per SOA in all of the casualty classes below tended to increase with deprivation: •

KSIs

•

Slight casualties

•

Total casualties

•

Child casualties

This indicates that there is a link between deprivation and road casualties.

Table 19 16.7.2 The numbers of adult car driver casualties have been generally rising since the 94-98 average. However, numbers dropped back a little in 2005 and have dropped further in 2006 to a level 7% higher than the 94-98 average. The most vulnerable age group remains the 21-30 age range. 16.7.3 The number of KSI casualties is 4% of total casualties in 2006 (from 6% as the 19941998 average).

17.0 Road Safety Economics 17.1 Table 24 is an extract from the Department for Transport Highways Economic Note No. 1 (January 2007) showing the average value of prevention per accident by severity and class of road. Using the average cost per accident on urban roads suggests a cost to the community in Bristol of over one hundred and forty million pounds (£140m) in 2006. 17.2 The costs shown in Table 24 are used to calculate economic rates of return for schemes intended to reduce road casualties. This allows the City Council to demonstrate its genuine effort in terms of the allocation of Local Transport Plan funding and enhanced road safety on the streets of Bristol.
