5 Environmental Services, which outlined the progress made against Norfolk s local target of 33% reduction in killed or seriously injured (KSI) casualties. Whilst the progress is currently off-target, this is broadly in-line with the national picture where trends have been levelling out since Norfolk has now implemented wide-ranging changes to the arrangements for steering casualty reduction work, and the Business Plan is designed to target 85% of those people most likely to be involved in road collision injuries. 5.2 The following points were raised during the discussion:- Comparisons with other rural counties was an area where more work needed to be carried out. Comparisons of KSI numbers and rates have been presented to the Board, however there would need to be further work done to provide comparisons in terms of the key target groups and other characteristics of injury involvements. Data from the report could be used in partnership with the data being worked on by Norfolk Constabulary s 2020 review team to analyse how effective the targeted campaigns at the sub-groups had been. For example the new motorcycle team at the constabulary had been very effective in reaching the powered two wheeler sub-group. Visible policing by the constabulary in high KSI areas had not shown any significant impact so far but further monitoring of this was required before any finalised results were produced. The increase in KSI numbers from 9 to 26 on the A11 had been identified and had been looked into further by officers and they were now more aware of the areas along the stretch of road that were of interest. The main area seemed to be between the Thickthorn junction to the St Stephens Road roundabout in the centre of the city. A verbal update would be provided on the progress on the analysis of the KSI hotspots on the A11 for the partnership to seek assurance and ensure that the next step would be taken. Most hard engineering had been carried out on Norfolk s roads; the next step in tackling the KSI numbers was to focus on softer interventions using the sub-groups as the focus. The Chairman put forward the proposal that the partnership reconsider the target set for reducing KSI numbers for the next 5 years as it did not appear that it was likely that the target would be reached. - The partnership discussed that it would be helpful if the target could be aligned with the target that the constabulary had set. - The no of KSI s for 2015 should be lower and therefore would show that progress was being made despite the rate at which numbers were falling being slower than expected. - The targets are set in batches of 10 years and officers would like to see the timeframe out to the end. - Officers felt that the target, even if it was deemed unachievable, was 5
6 keeping the team focused and motivated. - The Board agreed to keep the target as it was for the remaining 5 years. had received a hospital episodes (HES) data set for the East of England which would enable the casualty reduction team to explore the actual morbidity of severe injuries incurred in Road Traffic Accidents. Currently the assessment of severe injuries was done by the police officer at the scene and therefore this data could be further informed by use of the HES. By applying the new data set to the existing sub-groups, this should provide some interesting results. Officer would report back to the partnership once the data had been analysed. 5.3 The Board noted the report. 6 Norfolk Road Casualty Reduction Partnership Delivery Plan 6.1 The Board received the Delivery Plan for the Road Casualty Reduction Partnership which outlined the future business and action plan. 6.2 Mr I Temperton, Team Manager of Casualty Reduction Education & Development gave a general update on the progress of the four sub groups. Communications There had been issues with the website and a discussion needed to be had with Fire and Rescue regarding the ability to host and develop the website for the partnership. It could be possible for the communications team working on the 2020 review within Norfolk Constabulary to provide assistance and this should be looked into. If none of the partners could help facilitate the website then the Board should look into using a professional company to host and develop the website. Young Drivers Sgt John Chapman had taken over and was a very enthusiastic addition to the team. Motorcyclists The team was getting ready for the summer season which was when most of the bikers would come out to ride. The police bike team was having a real effect on this sub-group and the constabulary should be congratulated as they were doing a fantastic job. 6
7 Vulnerable Users Officers had been discussing with the communications team the media output on individuals inattention when on the roads as this was felt to be a main area of concern for this group. Members of the Board highlighted that the vulnerable user s age group was 15 years + which was reassuring that it was adults rather than young people being affected. Members of the Board raised concerns regarding the media campaign using traditional forms of media such as newspapers. They were assured by the officers that feedback was always asked for to determine what forms of media were most effective. Analysis had been carried out to inform the decision and paper media was considered to be a very cheap form nowadays and would target the wanted group effectively. Older People This sub-group was moving forward; there had been referrals received from police control room from people raising concerns about neighbours or friends and family s ability to drive. The difficulty was around how to approach these individuals in a professional manner and ensure that staff had the appropriate training around this. Norfolk Safety Camera Partnership The average speed cameras should be in place soon with the A17 being one of the first roads to trial the new cameras. Highway Safety Engineering The North West Norfolk speed zone that had been approved by the EDT Committee was waiting for the Department for Transport to approve. 6.3 The Board noted the delivery plan. 7 Any Other Business 7.1 Norfolk Constabulary within its 2020 review team had created core groups which it hoped would be able to time in with the Road Casualty sub-groups and develop the partnership further. 7.2 The Board were informed that Chief Inspector Christopher Spinks who had been in charge of Road Traffic at Norfolk Constabulary had left and interviews were being done this week to find a suitable replacement. 7

10 Report title: Road Casualty Reduction Partnership Board Item No 5 Date of meeting: 19 April 2016 Casualty Reduction Progress Update Responsible Chief Tom McCabe Executive Director, Community Officer: and Environmental Services Strategic impact While the Government s Strategic Framework for Road Safety does not set specific targets for levels of road casualty reduction, Norfolk set a local target of 33% reduction on killed or seriously injured (KSI) casualties. Progress against the target is shown in the graphs in Appendix A. From May 2016 this target will be included in the upper tier Vital Signs performance indicators for the County and will be reported monthly to the County Leadership Team. Executive summary The latest available rolling twelve month figure for killed or seriously-injured (KSI) casualties is 371 to the end of January 2016, which represents a 20% reduction from the baseline figure of 462. This represents very strong progress over the period since November 2015, and means the performance is within target for the first time since December The calendar year 2015 saw the lowest number of fatalities on Norfolk roads (33), as well as one of the lowest numbers of motorcyclist fatalities (3). The four Key Target Groups are expected to make up 85% of the groups most likely to be involved in KSI road casualties. Further evidence from national research could indicate that normal rates of casualty reduction are likely to be achieved going forward. On that basis it is considered that projections for progress during the rest of 2016 should now be based on the achievement of the interim target level for December 2016, which is 365 KSI. Recommendations: Members of the Board are asked to comment on the report. 1. Proposal (or options) 1.1. From May 2016 the target for reducing KSI numbers will be included in the upper tier Vital Signs performance indicators for the County and will be reported monthly to the County Leadership Team. A copy of the template for the reports is contained in Appendix A1, and includes the graph of total KSI numbers in Norfolk which is also shown as a separate graph in Appendix A In keeping with the conventions of public health monitoring methodology, the indicator for KSI Vital Signs should be supported with information on the underlying rate of KSI per 100,000 population, so that the impact of population growth is factored out of the performance analysis. It is therefore proposed that the information in the graph at Appendix A3 will be included in the reports to this Board and can be referenced when needed in the commentary to the monthly 10
11 Vital Signs updates Recent changes in the arrangements for data processing have led to some delays in the provision of up to date data and all Partners should consider how to ensure that previous good performance can be maintained to support both the RCRP and the Vital Signs monitoring and reporting. 2. Evidence 2.1. Overall KSI trends Progress against the target is shown in the graph in Appendix A2. Due to technical issues with the STATS19 data the latest full year available is January If possible, a further update to these figures will be made available for the meeting on 19 April. The current rolling twelve month KSI figure is 371 to the end of January 2016, which represents a 20% reduction from the baseline figure. The total number of KSI casualties is below the interim target of 377 at the end of January 2016, which is the first time the numbers have been below the target since December This follows a continuation of a recent downward trend as the months December 2014 and January 2015 have dropped from the moving 12 month totals. Generally, mild winter weather can be a negative factor for casualty reduction, so the outturns for December 2015 and January 2016 represent welcome progress since the last update was presented based on the year to end of November Outturn The Dashboard at Appendix B1 summarises the final outturn for the calendar year January to December The final outturn for All KSI was 385, slightly above the projected level (375).Good progress was made for P2W and Younger Drivers, and Older Drivers came close to achieving projected levels. However the Pedestrian & Cyclist Group remains above projected levels also saw the lowest ever total of fatal injuries from road casualties in Norfolk, a total of 33 fatalities, resulting from 32 collisions. The breakdown is given in the table below: Fatal 33 Driver or Rider 22 Car 16 HGV >7.5T 1 LGV <3.5T 1 P2W >50 <125cc 1 P2W >500cc 2 Pedal Cycle 1 Passenger 3 Car 3 Pedestrian 8 Bus or Coach 1 Car 5 HGV >7.5T 1 11
12 LGV <3.5T 1 The total of 3 fatalities for motorcyclists is one of the lowest figures for a full year for Norfolk Current year progress updates The table in Appendix B2 shows the latest position for the current year, and the key points are contained in the following paragraphs P2W (motorcyclists) The latest P2W KSI figure is 86 which is a reduction of 23% from the baseline. This is the lowest figure for a year since July 2013, and follows a trend of reducing P2W involvements in KSI since the middle of Pedestrians and cyclists Pedestrian and Cyclist KSI were down to 100 at the end of January This is comprised of 54 pedestrians and 46 cyclist involvements. This is the lowest number of pedestrian involvements since August 2013 and is welcome progress following a peak of 83 at April Younger drivers (aged years) There were 93 KSI where one of the drivers involved was aged to the end of January Since the start of the current monitoring period in January 2011 the trend is generally flat with fluctuations around the level of 100 KSI per annum Older Drivers (aged 70 years and over) KSI resulting from a collision involving an older driver were 61 at the end of January The current levels mean that there has been no progress in reducing these casualties below the baseline levels, and the total for this Group has been above the target since March Slight casualties The graph in Appendix C shows the latest movements in the number of slight injury casualties. In the most recent 12 month period available, to the end of January 2016, there were 2016 recorded slight collisions on Norfolk s roads. Of these, 1336 (66.3%) were car occupants, 183 (9.1%) were cyclists, 179 (8.9%) were motorcyclists, and 174 (8.6%) were pedestrians. In the year to end July 2015, there were 2266 recorded slight casualties on Norfolk s roads. Of these, 1516 (66.9%) were car occupants, 195 (8.6%) were cyclists, 192 (8.5%) were motorcyclists, and 185 (8.2%) were pedestrians. This shows that make up of slight casualties has remained quite stable, whilst overall numbers have fallen Projections Projections of road casualties in Great Britain 12
13 An assessment by the Parliamentary Advisory for Transport Safety (PACTS) which looked at the trends in casualty reduction in the UK has found that the strong performance achieved during the period could be an anomaly due to the beneficial effects of new vehicle standards and improved compliance with speed limits [2014 CGB Mitchell and RE Allsop (Page 6)]. The report suggests that going forward the rate of casualty reduction could return to a more normal, longer-term trend based on the gains experienced up to the year This information has been used to review the likely projections of casualty reductions in Norfolk. Norfolk has since 2010 followed a similar trend to national data, with less progress than previous years, including some periods with rising KSI and Slight road casualties. Some of this pattern could be due to suppressed traffic volumes following the economic downturn adding to the effects noted in the PACTS report If trends are now returning to more normal rates of casualty reduction, and following the good progress achieved during this winter, it is considered that projections for the remainder of 2016 can be lowered. On this basis it is recommended that in-year targets for the 2016 should aim to achieve the interim target of 365 for the year ending December Using the projected KSI proportions for Norfolk which were presented at the last meeting (see diagram below), a revised set of projections for the Key Target Groups is shown in the Dashboard at Appendix B2. It is recommended that these projections are adopted as the basis for monitoring progress over the current year. KSI Proportions Cyclists, 10% Younger Drivers, 25% Pedestrians, 15% Older Drivers, 13% P2W, 22% Other, 15% 3. Financial Implications 13
14 3.1. All measures are met from Partners existing budgets. 4. Issues, risks and innovation 4.1. Current projections of progress under the Business Plan now indicate better prospects for the Partnership to achieve the target for reducing overall KSI by the end of the monitoring period. The Partnership continues to promote evidence-led targeting of resources for Education, Enforcement and Engineering interventions, as set out in the Business Plan Changes to the arrangement of functions across the Partnership are currently being discussed as part of the Devolution agenda, and these could bring forward some matters which the Board will need to consider, alongside the wider context for road safety in the UK. In December 2015 the Department for Transport issued the British Road Safety Statement in a publication titled Working together to Build a Safer Road System, which states in the introduction: We estimate that road traffic collisions cost the UK economy in excess of 16.3 billion per year. This statement sets out the context of road safety in Britain today and the overarching scope of road safety activity for the government..the statement covers road safety policy within Britain as governed by the Department for Transport (DfT). Our key priorities for road safety include: Adopting the Safe Systems approach. This is clear in the framework we have set with Highways England and which it is now implementing. It is also a theme that runs throughout this Statement; Protecting vulnerable road users, including pedestrians, cyclists, motor cyclists and horse riders, through infrastructure and vehicle improvements, promotion of safer behaviour and equipment and ensuring other road users are aware of the risks posed to these groups and adapt accordingly; Taking tough action against those who speed, exceed the drink-drive limit, take drugs or use their mobile phone while on the road; Ensuring that the driver testing and training regime prepares new drivers for a wide range of real life driving conditions and situations; Working with the insurance industry to incentivise safer behaviours and to reward the uptake of those new technologies and opportunities to improve skills that are proven to reduce collisions; Helping employers to reduce road related collisions at work, including through improved heavy goods vehicle (HGV) safety; Encouraging the faster uptake of safer vehicles via the promotion of clear consumer information and the procurement of safer vehicles; Promoting the development and adoption of connected and autonomous vehicle technologies in a way that maximises safety benefits; Continuing our THINK! Campaign to provide road user education and influence behaviour in a targeted and engaging way; Enabling the police to use modern enforcement technologies, while protecting the privacy of law-abiding people; Supporting Highways England and local authorities in improving the safety standards of our roads; Reviewing the nation s road safety management capacity, to identify 14
15 opportunities for strengthening joint working, local innovation and efficiency; Supporting further devolution of road safety policy, in a way that meets the needs of our nation as a whole; Underpinning our policy decisions with robust evidence, research and evaluation; and Working in partnership with public and private sector bodies and civil society organisations to save lives. A copy of the full Road Safety Statement is available here. 5. Background 5.1. In May 2011 the government issued the Strategic Framework for Road Safety which set out new measures to reduce deaths and injuries on roads. The document set out Measures that we intend to take nationally and areas where the policy and delivery will reflect local priorities and circumstances. At both the national and the local level, safer infrastructure, better and more targeted education that draws upon behavioural science and tougher enforcement for the small minority of motorists who deliberately chose to drive dangerously will all be important. We also see a key role for citizens in improving the performance of their areas by holding local decision makers to account where they feel that further action is needed The analysis of trends and patterns in road casualties has been extended by the publication of Road Casualties in Norfolk: Baseline Evaluation Report 2013 via the Norfolk Insight website. The report can be viewed via this link: Norfolk Insight. This report has been prepared to provide a summary of the data which is currently available to support the work of the RCRP, and the scope for further data-sharing between the partner organisations to improve the targeting of measures The 2013 report also provides a baseline for comparisons with new information as the work of RCRP partner s progresses. A 2014 update to the report has been published to inform business planning during , and can be viewed via this link. Road Casualties in Norfolk 2014 Update Report 5.4. The Casualty Reduction Data Team continues to provide data analysis to support the 4 Sub-groups which lead on the targeted interventions. During 2015 a main focus of this work has been the identification of target profiles based on over-represented categories within the MOSAIC. All results will be published in a new 2015 Annual Report, which also include comparison data from other similar local authorities.

23 Road Casualty Reduction Partnership Board Item No. 6 Report title: RCRP Delivery Plans 15/16 and 16/17 Date of meeting: 19 April 2016 Responsible Chief Tom McCabe: Executive Director Community and Officer: Environmental Services Strategic impact The ongoing reduction of road casualties in Norfolk will enhance the quality of life of residents and visitors, as well as reducing the costs to society of dealing with the consequences of incidents. Continued efforts by all agencies and bodies in the partnership will further improve on our previous successes in preventing death and injury, thereby allowing safe and effective use of our road network by all. Executive summary This report contains a summary of partnership activity for the business plan year 2015/16 and a proposal for activity in the year 2016/17. The 2015/16 report details the outcomes of all interventions related to road casualty reduction. Whilst some of these do not relate specifically to the four designated target groups overseen by the RCRP they all contribute to the provision of a set of life skills for road users to deploy on a well-managed road network. The report details outcomes of all proposed streams of work. The 2016/17 report proposes the continuation of these work streams. In many ways this is a business as usual approach for most activities, albeit this targeted approach to specific groups of users is still relatively new. There is still scope for further development in some areas. As with previous delivery plans, all outputs are based upon evidence and research. We will shortly be receiving the external evaluation of the Young Driver function, the Board might like to give some thought as to which element of delivery should next be scrutinised. This is also the opportunity for the Board to suggest any further interventions, again based upon adequate research and evidence. Recommendations: That the Board approve the 2015/16 report and consider the 2016/17 proposals for approval. 1. Proposal (or options) 1.1. The Delivery Plan is very much a pulling together of all work undertaken by the various partners in the area of Road Casualty Reduction. The approval of the past and future plans is an opportunity to influence the direction of travel of the partners and ensure that all proposed works are being delivered in a cost effective and measurable way. Robust scrutiny and challenge will ensure that all officers will remain focused upon what needs to be done. 23
24 2. Evidence 2.1. The evidence that supports our schemes of work is provided by the Data subgroup, who identify any trends and issues as they arise. Once the issue is identified key officers will use research and evidence to establish the best solution to the problem. The evidence base is clear, measurable and nationally consistent. 3. Financial Implications 3.1. Much of the work detailed in the reports is funded by partners base budgets, however the revenue spend element is funded from Speed Awareness surpluses provided via the Safety Camera Partnership scrutiny function. 4. Issues, risks and innovation 4.1. The most significant risk is loss of personnel due to future funding and structural changes. This has been mitigated by the recent broadening of the partnership involvement, a trend that needs to continue if ongoing success is to be maintained. 5. Background 5.1. Norfolk is highly regarded in its delivery of Casualty Reduction at a national level. We are seen to have an effective and energetic partnership that is not often found in equivalent authorities. The governance of our efforts ensures that we are focused on the right tasks and we are delivering what we aspire to. Every casualty on our roads is one too many and we welcome the opportunity to improve and innovate to make travelling safer, whichever mode people choose to use.
