Highest-priority dangerous signalised intersections

This council-level panel ranks signalised intersections using the SCATS exposure-adjusted road-harm screening layer.

Headline signal: Doncaster / Blackburn is the strongest Manningham signal-site priority in the SCATS exposure-adjusted screening layer. It ranks #1 locally and #251 statewide.

Emerging hotspots and worsening trends

This section compares recent road harm against the long-run baseline to identify patterns that may be getting worse.

Plain-English signal: Manningham has localised worsening signals even if the whole-council signal is below the statewide top threshold.

Vulnerable Road User Atlas

This section focuses on pedestrian, bicyclist, motorcyclist, school-age pedestrian/cyclist and older-pedestrian harm patterns where fields are available.

Plain-English VRU signature: Manningham recorded 336 vulnerable-road-user crash records, 8 fatalities and 158 serious injuries. VRU crashes account for 14.6% of all recorded injury crashes and 19.0% of weighted harm. The largest VRU count group is pedestrians. School-age pedestrian/cyclist flags appear in 56 records. Older-pedestrian flags appear in 67 records.

Freight Conflict Index

This section focuses on heavy-vehicle crash harm, vulnerable-road-user overlap and TIRTL freight exposure where available.

Plain-English freight signature: Manningham recorded 80 heavy-vehicle-involved crash records, 2 fatalities and 23 serious injuries. Heavy-vehicle crashes account for 3.8% of total weighted harm. There are 3 heavy-vehicle crashes overlapping with pedestrians, bicyclists or motorcyclists. No TIRTL-matched freight-corridor harm was available for this council in the current matching layer.
