1. ROAD SAFETY IN SOUTH YORKSHIRE Frances Adams, SY Local Transport Plan Director Ken Wheat, SY Safer Roads Partnership Manager The South Yorkshire Safer Roads Partnership Approach

2. South Yorkshire & the Region

4. In Terms of Casualty Reduction Relatively poor performance compared to others in UK in early 2000s led to visit by DfT and SY Road Safety Improvement Plan; In UK duty to investigate road traffic collisions and take action rests with the local highway authorities but little evidence of sub-regional partnership working; Countywide approach and liaison with others with a role to play needed to be improved; SY Casualty Reduction Partnership began in 2006.

5. Casualty Reduction Partnership Refresh South Yorkshire Police as Chair in 2006 Partnership approach in place but how effective and evidence led? Structure, Meetings, Ownership, Roles – unclear ETP activity by different Partners uncoordinated Casualty reduction targets on track to meet LTP2 targets but not National Targets based on 1994/1998 average How do we improve to maintain progress?

6. Safer Roads Partnership Process Reinforced – Partnership approach, visibility and commitment Restructured – Strategic; Operational; Tactical Levels Gold = SRP – aligned SRP to Crime and Disorder Structures Silver = Tactical Group – aligned to Crime and Disorder Reduction Partnership Bronze = Delivery of Tactic – Safety Camera Partnership

10. Safer Roads Activity LTP Worst First Safety Initiatives District Council Revenue Budgets Sponsorship LTP Local Safety Schemes LSTF Income from speed and driver courses Fire Service Police How it is all resourced

11. Safer Roads Partnership - Product Incomplete Analytical Profile Gold = SRP Strategy not fully informed Silver = Tactical Group – Resource targeting not fully informed causing:- - Over focus on location and victim - Imbalanced approach to Education, Engineering and Enforcement - Not best use of resources? - Incomplete predictive capability

12. Assess Proven Crime Reduction Processes & Products Problem Solving Triangle Core elements for KSIs Data collection Data Analysis Causation Factors Predictive Capability Better targeted resourcing Leading to Safer Roads

13. OVER Focus - Victim Age profile Medical profile Family profile Lifestyle profile = Missed opportunities Incorrect intervention Reduced outcome?

14. OVER Focus – Location ‘Its not the trees fault ! ‘ Incomplete data..... ‘the 800’ Missed opportunities =Incorrect intervention Reduced outcome?

15. OVER Focus – Time Time (Temporal analysis) = Missed opportunities Incorrect intervention Reduced outcome?

16. UNDER Focus – RTC Perpetrators Behavioural profiling Driver profiling Offender Profiling Criminal Profiling = Missed opportunities Incorrect intervention Reduced outcome?

17. Bringing it All Together Balancing the three E’s Developed risk matrix for assessment Joint Strategic Assessment Control Strategy Results analysis Further CDRP alignment
