    Report summary

    Georgina Lauren Taylor died following a road traffic collision on the A627(M), in which a vehicle lost control at excessive speed, struck a tree and rolled. The report raised concerns about trees and other roadside features near the carriageway, including whether they were adequately protected or should have been removed, and about the lack of requirements to reassess protection as roadside vegetation developed.

    How this individual concern was interpreted

    PFD Monitor created a concise, searchable interpretation from the report wording shown below. The report was sent to Family of the deceased; that does not assign responsibility.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Lack of inspection of developing soft estate to assess vehicle restraint protection requirements

    Wider context from the report

    “2. The introduction of the interim requirements for road restraint systems in 2002 identified that all trees with a girth exceeding 500mm (or several closely spaced trees) located within a distance of 4.5m from the paved carriageway require protection. The re-issued requirements in 2004 identified that trees above 300mm in girth should be protected by a suitable vehicle restraint system. 3. Current design standard TD19/06 includes a site specific risk process where topographical features, together with adjacent sources of risk are reviewed in order to identify the most appropriate restraint facility and containment levels and that in relation to the presence of trees adjacent to the nearside verge and protection requirements, it is unclear as to when these regimented and it is likely that they are all ‘self-seeded’ with the larger specimens being over 10 years old. Whilst the vehicle restraint systems in place comply with identified requirements at the time of the construction of the route, there are no current requirements to inspect soft estate as it develops in terms of assessing protection requirements. The application of more recent design standards would have required some of the trees at this location to be protected (as well as the lighting columns) or removed within the 4.5m threshold. ”
