Breakdown of accidents on A90 from January 2017: EIR release

Information requested

Details of the number of fatalities and accidents on the A90 Perth to Dundee road over the last three years, including a breakdown of where these took place and when? Can you also please provide details of when the last safety road audit of the A90 Perth to Dundee road was carried out by the Scottish Government?

You also clarified that you would like details of the number of road accidents and the exact location on the A90 Perth to Dundee road from the beginning of 2017 (January 1st) up to the present time, or as near to that as is possible.

It is probably best to phrase it as a road safety audit, which is to identify aspects of engineering interventions that could give rise to road safety problems and to suggest modifications that could improve road safety. My understanding is that a road safety audit is undertaken by staff with experience of collision data analysis, road safety engineering experience and a reasonable understanding of highway design principles such as design requirements and best practice.
