I suggest to the original submitter, make another OIA request asking that the data be broken down for the three separate regions, the 90k before the divided section, the divided section, and the 90k section after the divided section. I have caught NZTA out fudging their statistics before. Their own CAS data clearly shows less accidents on the divided section.
Things to do with this request
- Add an annotation (to help the requester or others)
- Download a zip file of all correspondence
Offensive? Unsuitable?

Gosh its now 2020, two years after NZTA said they would make changes. Nothing has been done. Also, looking at the data, the opening of the two lane divided section is probably the main reason for the crash reductions. DIVIDED HIGHWAYS SAVE LIVES!!!! Why dont NZTA get it?
