Calls to Crashes on South Benfleet Road

We're waiting for Arike Idris to read a recent response and update the status.

Dear East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust,

I hope all is well. This is Arike from EssexLive and I would like to make an FOI request for information for a story I am looking into.

I would like to ask for statistics for the number of times you were called to road collisions/crashes on a particular road in South Benfleet from 2018 -2023.

The road is Kents Hill Road and Kents Hill Road North.

If you could provide a yearly breakdown of this in terms of how many calls you have to respond to crash/road collision reports each year between 2018-2023?

Yours faithfully,

Arike Idris
