The map reveals that the biggest concentrations of crashes involving pedestrians occur on our major roads.  In addition there is a relatively even, if sparse, spread of crash sites throughout many parts of the local road network.  The following particular problem spots can be identified:
  • Sydney Road
  • Bell Street
  • Lygon Street
  • Glenroy shopping centre
  • Coburg shopping centre
  • Several other more localised clusters including Moreland Road near the freeway.

You can investigate this data for yourself via VicRoads' interactive map at http://crashstat1.roads.vic.gov.au/crashstats/crash.htm
