LG Inform, the LGA data benchmarking service
Metrics added to LG Inform this month include:
Road Casualties statistics – 2013-15
The
number of people of all ages killed or seriously injured in road traffic
accidents in England for the period 2013-2015 was 20,914, this has fallen from
21,147 for the previous period 2012-14.
Bus services - the proportion of non-frequent
scheduled services running on time - 2015/16
Bus
punctuality is defined as keeping public service buses to their scheduled bus
departure times. This indicator is the percentage of non-frequent buses (fewer
than 6 buses per hour) that leave on time. This is measured by whether the bus
departs within its “on-time” window of 1 minute 0 seconds early to 5 minutes 59
seconds late. Buses that fail to run are treated as “late” and are included in
the calculations. In England in 2015/16 82.6 per cent of non-frequent bus
services ran on time, this fell from 82.9 per cent in 2014/15 and 83.1 per cent
in 2013/14.
Diabetes prevalence - 2014/15
This measure is the proportion of people on GP
registers aged 17 years and over with a recorded diagnosis of diabetes. In
2013/14 across England this was 6.21 per cent, this has increased for the most
recent data for 2014/15 to 6.37 per cent.
The October 2016 Statistical Alert includes information
on the Consumer
Price Index (CPI) and Retail Price Index (RPI), employment and unemployment
rates, and public sector pay settlements for Great Britain.
