<\/p>

1 <\/sup>Includes only casualties where a police officer attended the scene and in which a contributory factor was reported. In 2016, this related to 73% of reported accidents.<\/p>

<\/p>

By way of context, cycling in Great Britain has increased over the time period in question, rising from 4 billion kilometres in 2007 to 6 billion kilometres in 2016.<\/p>

<\/p>

It should be that noted that contributory factors assigned by police officers do not assign blame for the accident to any specific road user, however they do provide some insight into why and how road accidents occur. They give an indication of which factors the attending officer thought contributed to the accident. Officers do not need to carry out a full investigation of the incident before allocating contributory factors; they usually use professional judgement about what they can see at the scene.<\/p>

<\/p>

Not all accidents are included in the contributory factor data; only accidents where the police attended the scene and reported at least one contributory factor are included. A total of 73% of accidents reported to the police in 2016 met these criteria although each accident can have multiple contributory factors attributed to them.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3991", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jesse Norman"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Hereford and South Herefordshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Jesse Norman"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-02-27", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "true", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "previousAnswerVersion" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/847143/answer/previousversion/43590", "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3991", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jesse Norman"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Hereford and South Herefordshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Jesse Norman"} } , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-02-27T16:45:50.58Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ], "questionFirstMinisteriallyCorrected" : [{"_value" : "2018-03-15T15:22:13.737Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "27"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-02-22", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Cycling: Accidents"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many cyclists have died or suffered serious injuries where the cause has been attributed to poorly-maintained roads by (a) local councils, (b) Highways England, (c) Transport Scotland and (d) the Welsh Government in each year since 2007.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4523", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Catherine West"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Hornsey and Wood Green"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Catherine West"} ], "uin" : "129317"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/845738", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Transport"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/845738/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The revised draft Airports National Policy Statement is clear that any potential scheme at Heathrow must comply with the UK\u2019s civil aviation safety regime, regulated by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). A detailed safety assessment will be required as part of the CAA\u2019s airspace change process. This assessment includes the air traffic safety risks associated with the proposed airspace design and whether the level of air traffic control resource and infrastructure is appropriate to support the change safely.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Airports Commission did however consider safety as part of their analysis. They asked the Health and Safety Laboratory to conduct analysis of the scale of increase in crash risk associated with the three shortlisted schemes. The Health and Safety Laboratory\u2019s report can be found here:<\/p>

The Transport Minister for Aviation met with local authorities from the Heathrow area on 1st November 2016. This was to discuss the process of publicising the proposed Airport National Policy Statement. The Lakeside Energy from Waste plant was raised and the local authorities in attendance were advised we would welcome views as part of any future consultation. No Ministerial meetings have been held between Ministers and local authorities to discuss the potential relocation of Lakeside Energy from Waste facility.<\/p>

<\/p>

On the 17th February 2017 officials from the Department met with representatives of Lakeside Energy from Waste facility at their request, together with other interested commercial stakeholders to give an overview of the National Policy Statement process.<\/p>

<\/p>

Discussions relating to expansion have taken place in observance of the principles set out in the government\u2019s published Statement of Approach which prevents the Department from entertaining private representations about the content of draft / revised draft Airports NPS(s) while policy is under development.<\/p>

The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) includes first aid information in its study materials for both the theory and practical driving tests. In addition, the theory part of the driving test includes questions about first aid.<\/p>

Introducing a test on first aid into the practical driving test would lengthen the test, resulting in fewer tests per day, longer waiting times for tests and higher cost.<\/p>

This assesses the baseline population affected by Heathrow airport in different ways and with respect to a number of different impacts.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3991", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jesse Norman"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Hereford and South Herefordshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Jesse Norman"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-02-22", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-02-22T17:56:10.547Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "27"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-02-19", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Heathrow Airport: Population"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what estimate he has made of the number of people who live within 10km of Heathrow Airport.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1555", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Justine Greening"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Putney"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Justine Greening"} ], "uin" : "128343"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/843968", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Transport"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/843968/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The Government recognises that there are many potential benefits to be realised from smart transport innovations, across all modes. We also recognise that the Department for Transport has a role to play in ensuring that the most effective innovations are identified and introduced in ways that are legal, safe and maximise the benefits to society.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Department has a diverse programme of activities underway to fulfil that role. This includes various research projects being funded through Innovate UK, and through the Catapult Centres, and a data discovery project to test whether local transport network planners, operators and users would benefit from local transport data that is more widely shared, accessible and conforms to agreed standards.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Department is also working with other Government departments, high technology industries, academics and researchers to identify opportunities for collaboration to encourage the use of smart transport innovations. We will consider how best to share the results of this work with local areas in order to support them in using these innovations. The Department does not have a single Smart Cities model for local areas to follow, and it is for them, and their transport operators and suppliers, to determine local priorities and solutions.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3991", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jesse Norman"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Hereford and South Herefordshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Jesse Norman"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-02-27", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-02-27T10:19:43.933Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "27"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-02-19", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Urban Areas: ICT"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, when he plans to publish a Smart City narrative and action plan.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/410", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jon Trickett"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Hemsworth"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Jon Trickett"} ], "uin" : "128084"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "next" : "https://eldaddp.azurewebsites.net/answeredquestions.text?_page=1&answer.answeringMemberConstituency=Hereford+and+South+Herefordshire&max-questionFirstAnswered.=2018-02-27T16%3A45%3A50.58Z&max-answer.dateOfAnswer=2018-11-20", "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 1419, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
