Crash safety in Beaconsfield (2015)

Beaconsfield (2015) sits within the City of Sydney local government area. Whether a suburb has a higher or lower crash rate than its neighbours is partly a function of traffic volume (high-volume arterial roads generate more crashes) and partly a function of road design and speed environment. The data below gives you the raw numbers and a relative-risk rating compared to similar Sydney suburbs.

High crash counts in a suburb are not always a reflection of dangerous local roads. They can reflect the presence of a major arterial or highway that passes through the postcode, carrying high volumes of through-traffic. Check whether the crashes in Beaconsfield are concentrated on one or two high-volume roads or distributed across the residential street network, as that tells you a lot about whether the risk is avoidable for most residents.
