Please note the fol owing concerning the data contained in this spreadsheet:
• This data is provided from the road traffic crash database; Crash Analysis System (CAS) version 2.13.2.
• NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA) maintains CAS which is updated once a Traffic Crash Report
(TCR) is received from New Zealand Police sometime after the crash.
• Data is for all crashes for the years 2020 to 2025 as recorded in CAS to date - as at 22 September 2025.
• 2025 data is not yet complete in CAS but these are the current figures from CAS as at 22 September 2025.
• Data is limited to crashes on roads in Arrowtown.
• A crash, to be recorded in CAS must have occurred on a road. The CAS definition of a road is any street,
motorway or beach, or a place to which the public have access with a motor vehicle, whether as of right or
not - for example, a public car park.
• Due to the police reporting time frame and subsequent data processing, there is a lag from the time of a
crash to full and correct crash records within CAS.
• Due to the nature of non-fatal crashes, it is believed that these are under-reported, with the level of under-
reporting decreasing with the increasing severity of the crash.
• Crash severity is the severity of the worst injury in the crash. There may be more than one injury in a crash,
under the Official Information Act 1982
so the crash and injury tables may have different numbers.
• The cause of a crash cannot necessarily be attributed to any one factor (for example, fatigue) as a crash
may have multiple factors.
• Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, New Zealand had a 4-level Alert system in place from 21 March 2020
until this changed to a Traffic Light system from 3 December 2021 to 12 September 2022. The amount of
traffic on the roads during Level 4 lockdowns was greatly reduced, which consequently reduced the
number of road crashes. Road movements under the Orange and Red levels of the Traffic Light system
would also be reduced due to the restrictions in place, so data from these periods wil not align with
previous trends.
Released
• CAS is continually updated as new information is provided, therefore data regarding injuries, and factors
attributed to crashes, may change from previous releases.

Map of 2020-2025* crashes on roads in Arrowtown
CAS wil group crashes that are near each other depending on the zoom level of the map.
This should not be interpreted as where crash hotspots are.
The number in the circle is the number of crashes on that section of road.
The colours around the circle show the proportion of crashes of different severities - see legend to the right of this diagram.
Where there are individual crashes that are not grouped, they show as single pin - see legend to the right of this diagram.

Factors are counted once against a crash - that is, two fatigued drivers count as one fatigue crash factor.
Count is the number of crashes where that factor was a contributing factor to the crash. The Total is the sum of all the factors contributing to crashes.
Because a crash may have multiple factors there wil be more total factors than crashes resulting in factors totalling more than 100% of all crashes
Where Alcohol and/or Drugs are a contributing factor to a crash, this factor has been separated into either "Proven" or "Suspected".
Where a crash has both a proven and suspected factor against it, only the factor "Proven" is counted.
