Anyone know if the FoI act can be used to get better data on the impact of sites - the websites of the partnerships in general lack meaninful data.

examples I've be interested to know
accident count (major/minor) by site/year/month
speeding vehicle count by site/year/month

Typically the Scamera Partnerships will refuse to issue that type of info, either saying that it's for DfT to release or that it would compromise their operations to do so.

Have a look through the threads in this part of the forum for examples of the quality of information coming out of CSCP. :roll:

I had to ask over and over before I got the accident history for Ings.
It's in this document here http://www.cumbriasafetycameras.org/library/cumbriasites03.pdf
You can make a search of each location using appropriate keywords in Google, and look for newspaper reports of the accidents - it's tedious but gives an inkling of how sites are justified by none speeding accidents - such as heart attacks at the wheel etc. :x
