CCTV on Whitechapel Road / Plumbers Road

The request was refused by Tower Hamlets Borough Council.

Dear Tower Hamlets Borough Council,

I was cycling on Whitechapel Road going West towards Aldgate on the Cycle Superhighway 2 when an E-On White VW Transporter van driving in the same direction turned into the side street Plumbers Row / Fieldgate Street without indicating or checking the cycle lane causing me to veer left and crash on to the curb on the island crossing. I would like to know if there is CCTV footage covering this area of incident at 10:15am-10:30am on Friday 15th December so that I can use in my insurance claims. The coordinates are: 51°31'02.2"N 0°04'01.0"W

Yours faithfully,

Lily

Dear Freedom of Information,

Thank you for the advice and guidance. Is it possible to ask whether you have footage covering the area so that I can then ask my insurers to investigate further?

Many thanks,
