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

  2. South Yorkshire & the Region

  3. 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.

  4. 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?

  5. 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

  6. Integrated Transport Authority Direct Reporting & Political Direction Strategic Leadership Group LTP Wider Contribution Political Steer Safer Roads Partnership Planning and Transportation Steering Group GOLD:STRATEGY STRUCTURE Policy Direction Recommendations Safer Roads Finance Sub-Group SILVER:TACTICAL LEVEL STRUCTURE Safer Roads Partnership Manager Progress Reporting Safer Roads Tactical Group Coordination Operational Overview Safety Camera Group Education, Training and Publicity Group Worst First Group Road Safety Engineering Group Road Safety Statistical Group BRONZE:IMPLEMENTATION STRUCTURE District Councils Design and Delivery Team

  7. GOLD: STRATEGY • Reviewing the Road Safety Strategy and approach; • Challenge assumptions and mindsets; • Reviewing and directing resources including prioritisation and targeting; SILVER: TACTICAL • Development of the delivery and implementation plans for road safety; • Oversee and monitor delivery of projects and schemes; • Make recommendations for developing new interventions; BRONZE: IMPLEMENTATION • Delivery of individual projects/schemes; • Ensuring key milestones/targets are met; • Providing a ‘project management’ function;

  8. Safer Roads Partnership • South Yorkshire Police (including Safety Camera Partnership) • Barnsley, Doncaster, Rotherham and Sheffield Councils (Senior Offices and Cabinet Member Portfolio Holders) • Highways Agency (Motorway and Trunk Roads) • Peak District National Park • Primary Care Trusts • Sheffield University • South Yorkshire Fire and Rescue • Yorkshire Ambulance Service

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

  10. 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

  11. 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

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

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

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

  15. UNDER Focus – RTC Perpetrators • Behavioural profiling • Driver profiling • Offender Profiling • Criminal Profiling RTC Perpetrator(s) • = • Missed opportunities • Incorrect intervention • Reduced outcome?

  16. Bringing it All Together • Balancing the three E’s • Developed risk matrix for assessment • Joint Strategic Assessment • Control Strategy • Results analysis • Further CDRP alignment Victim Time RTC Perpetrator(s) Location
