Measures of Success
In order for the Partnership to measure the impact of its delivery we will set annual indicators which demonstrate our success in achieving our strategic outcomes of Safer Road Users, Safer Vehicles, Safer Roads and Post-Crash Response working towards Vision Zero. These will be set within our Action Plan and monitored regularly.
It is important that we revise and refresh our Action Plan annually as the road safety landscape is constantly changing and it is therefore acknowledged that our measures will need to continuously evolve. Following Action Plan implementation, the collision data, traffic speeds and feedback from the public and local stakeholders will be evaluated to determine the effectiveness of the interventions and strategy. We will publish our Action Plan each year, setting out how we are achieving a reduction in fatalities and the number of those who are seriously injured on our roads. We will also measure how we are improving the safety for all road users in York and North Yorkshire working towards our Vision Zero. The diagram below sets out our strategic measures of success which will form the basis of how we will monitor our progress in delivering the Safer Roads Strategy.
Due to the nature of road safety, there are delays between actions being taken and their effect on some outcomes being visible and measurable. We therefore recognise the need to identify a mixture of measures that can demonstrate both short-term and longer-term achievements. The annual Action Plan will be developed by the Officer Working Group and progress of delivery will be monitored regularly by the Strategy Group. The Local Tasking Groups will deliver our evidenced-based interventions and report against the measures set. Individual partners will ensure that the concerns of local stakeholders and interest groups in their areas are incorporated into the reviews of the action plan.
