Deaths and injuries in areas subject to speed restrictions

G Smith made this Official Information request to Ministry of Transport

Currently waiting for a response from Ministry of Transport, they must respond promptly and normally no later than (details and exceptions).

From: G Smith

Dear Ministry of Transport,

I am interested whether the death and injury rates on roads which had a speed reduction has been reported on by the Ministry.

The roads in question are ones which had speed reductions (50-30km/h, 100-80km/h) which the Transport Minister is seeking to reverse.

https://www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/35043312...

If such work has previously been done, for example in preparation of the initial speed reduction program, I request any reports, memos, analysis done.

If there has not been any work done, I request any data held relating to deaths and injuries for the speed reduction roads for 1 July 2014 - 1 July 2024.

I request a full list of these roads, separated into the two speed bands if possible, and the number of deaths and injuries on those roads for 1 July 2014 - 1 July 2024.

Please contact me if you require clarification.
