This framework sets out questions for local bodies interested in road safety to ask themselves. More detailed questions for each audience can be found under the individual audience tabs on the left-hand menu.
Analysing data better
- To what extent does data analysis and intelligence allow you to target education, training and publicity (ETP) on at-risk groups of road users?
- How does the analysis enable you to identify geographic areas where focused ETP and enforcement would be effective?
- How could local data and its analysis be made more useful? Are you getting data from the NHS? Do you share data with your neighbours, so you can analyse accidents and at-risk groups across boundaries?
Targeting action on locations and people
- How do you agree priorities with your local partners? How do you resolve disagreements?
- For each at-risk group, what combination of engineering, ETP and enforcement is most likely to influence their behaviours?
- How does your programme of local ETP and enforcement complement the national programme? How do the local campaigns reach the target groups that will not be influenced by national ones?
- How do you and your partners agree who should do what in ETP and enforcement campaigns?
- How well do engineering, ETP and enforcement reinforce each other? Is the balance of expenditure right?
- How do you ensure that adequate resources are available to relevant parties to make campaigns effective?
Engaging the public
- How do you engage with the community about road safety?
- How do you ensure that you and your partners do so in effective ways?
Evaluating value for money
- How do you analyse the impact of your activities?
- How is that analysis taken into account in future decisions about priorities and campaigns?
- How do you assess value for money? What would improve it?
- To whom do you account for your impact?
- How do you account for your actions to the public?
