Freedom of Information Request Reference No: FOI 004387/18

I write in connection with your request for information received by Constabulary on the 28th November 2018 in which you sought access to the following information:

Could I please request the accident, incident and casualty log for the B1108 within the parish of Kimberley and Carleton Forehoe? We aren't after anything with personal data, just the details of incidents - we had this once before and it detailed the date and time, how many involved, fatalities/casualties and a brief description of what happened. The reason is that we are looking at speed reduction measures, and would like evidence to back this up.

Please could we have this for the years 2014 - 2018 inclusive, on the B1108 (or very close by on the B1135 or the Barnham Broom Roads) - I attach a map showing the parish boundaries.
