Answer
My officials routinely carry out reviews of collision cluster sites when developing the Collision Remedial programme that sits within the wider Local Transport and Safety Measures (LTSM) programme. This review seeks to identify sites where 4 or more collisions have occurred within a three year period to determine if the application of appropriate road safety engineering measures would help reduce the number and severity of collisions.
The table below provides details of the locations of collision cluster sites identified in each Division and council area which, for completeness, also includes East Antrim. Unfortunately the information requested is not currently available for Armagh, Banbridge & Craigavon Council, Newry Mourne and Down Council (West) or the Council areas within Roads Western Division. However, I have asked the Divisional Roads Managers to write to the Member within four weeks with specific details for those areas not included below:
