Haydons Road safe crossing campaign - evidence video. We are campaigning for a safe place to cross on Haydons Road.
Haydons Road forms part of A218 link to the A3, South Circular and Wandsworth, over 20,000 cars use the stretch of road between Haydons Road Bridge and the very busy junction at Plough Lane.
This is video evidence which is submited to Merton Council, TFL and London Mayor for consideration when making a decision on reinstatement of a safe crossing.
The cost of a seriously injured patient's INITIAL treatment ranges from about £9000 and up. Rehabilitation following serious injury is much more expensive.
The Department for Transport has very kindly produced some information about "value of accidents" to put it crudely:
Search their website for "Highway Economics Note 2005" and it will come up. Also, they have a Good Practice Guide for Local Authorities on Road Safety. I can't seem to post the links!
