Collision analysis for Transport Statements and Transport Assessments

Run a collision study around a site access or along its main routes, see what the last five years of police-reported injury collisions look like, and export the tables for your appendix.

What the guidance asks for

National planning practice guidance lists the information a Transport Assessment or Transport Statement should include. One item is a review of the injury collision record near the site:

"an analysis of the injury accident records on the public highway in the vicinity of the site access for the most recent 3-year period, or 5-year period if the proposed site has been identified as within a high accident area"

Highway authorities often set out their own requirements in local guidance, including the study area, the period and whether they want their own extract. Agree these at scoping.

Where Pro fits

Before you price the job
Check whether the site access has a recorded collision history that will need more than a paragraph in the report.
At scoping
Go into the conversation with the highway authority already knowing whether there is a cluster near the access or on the main routes.
Drafting the statement
Export the year and severity table for the report, the individual records for an appendix and GeoJSON for your site plans.
Sites with nothing recorded
See straight away when there are no recorded injury collisions near the access in the published years, before paying for an extract to confirm it.

Many highway authorities still want their own extract for the submitted assessment, with the latest provisional year and contributory factors. Pro does not replace that. It makes sure there are no surprises in it.

What a study looks like

A study collects every recorded injury collision in the area and years you choose, totals them by year and severity, and picks out the road users and conditions involved. Each collision keeps its own record, with the date, time, severity, vehicles, casualties, road, junction, light, weather and road surface.

How it compares

A formal extract from the highway authority is the authoritative record, and sometimes you will need one. Councils charge for each request, usually per location, per road or per radius. These are the published fees we have checked on councils' own websites.

Turnaround

Few councils publish one. Hertfordshire, for example, says standard requests are delivered within 10 working days of the purchase order. A Pro study is ready as soon as you have chosen the area.

CrashMap Pro

Another subscription service built on STATS19. It lists £1,175 a year + VAT for a single user. Each additional user is £500 a year + VAT.

CrashView Pro

£49 a month or £490 a year, for studies anywhere in Great Britain, with up to 200 exports a month and every regional report included.

Fees for every other authority are on the council's website. Find your highway authority's collision figures.

What Pro is, and what it isn't

Pro is built on the Department for Transport's published STATS19 data: every personal injury collision on a public road in Great Britain that was reported to the police. The latest validated year is 2025. It is the right tool for screening sites, feasibility work and early-stage analysis.

Where the highway authority asks for its own extract, often for a Transport Assessment or a road safety audit, you will still need to request one. Pro tells you what that extract is likely to show before you pay for it.

Not in the published data

  • Contributory factors. The causes the attending officer recorded are left out of the open data.
  • Officers' descriptions. There is no narrative of what happened, and no names or registrations.
  • The current year. Provisional, unvalidated records are held by the police and the highway authority until the annual release.
  • Damage-only and unreported collisions. Only injury collisions the police knew about are included, and the Department for Transport notes that many non-fatal casualties are never reported to the police.
  • Northern Ireland. STATS19 covers England, Scotland and Wales only.

Questions

Will a highway authority accept a CrashView study in a Transport Statement or Assessment?

It depends on the authority and the scale of the development. Some are content with published STATS19 data for a smaller Transport Statement; many ask for their own extract for a Transport Assessment, especially when they want contributory factors or the latest provisional year. Agree the data source, study area and period at scoping. Pro is built for screening and early-stage work, so you know what the extract will show before you pay for it.

What study period should I use?

Agree it with the highway authority. Councils commonly quote three or five years for a standard extract. CrashView holds the published STATS19 data for every year back to 1979, so the years you need are there.

Where does the data come from?

The Department for Transport's STATS19 dataset: every personal injury collision on a public road in Great Britain that was reported to the police, published as open data under the Open Government Licence. The latest validated year in CrashView is 2025.

Is a Pro study the same as a council collision extract?

No. It uses the same police-reported collisions, but the published open data leaves out contributory factors, the officer's description of what happened and the current year's provisional records, all of which a highway authority can add to a formal extract. Use Pro to screen sites and see what an extract is likely to show. Where the highway authority asks for its own extract, you will still need to request one.

Does it cover Northern Ireland?

No. STATS19 covers England, Scotland and Wales. Collisions in Northern Ireland are recorded separately by the PSNI.

Can I use the results in a report for a client?

The underlying STATS19 data is published under the Open Government Licence v3.0, which allows commercial reuse as long as you acknowledge the source, for example: "Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0."

How does the free trial work?

You get 14 days of Pro without entering a card. When the trial ends you drop back to the free plan unless you subscribe. If you subscribe during the trial, the first payment waits until the trial ends.

Can I cancel?

Yes, at any time from the billing page. You keep Pro until the end of the period you have paid for.

Do I get invoices?

Every payment produces a receipt and an invoice you can download from the billing page, with your company name, address and VAT number if you add them at checkout.
