You asked
I am writing on behalf of Bromley Cyclists, part of LCC, and am seeking to get better statistics. Can you please help us with the following for Bromley Borough:
1. Percentage of trips by modal share (car, bus, train, cycling, foot etc.), annually since 2010
2. Accidents, by modal share and (as far as possible) by location within the Borough
Please provide whatever you have available, together with an explanation as to how the figures are derived.

Our ref: FOI-1060-1718/GH
Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 31 July 2017 asking for information about modal share statistics.
Your request has been considered under the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and our information access policy. I can confirm that we do hold the information you require.
We publish modal share data by borough level in our Travel in London reports, which are available from our website. The most recent one can be viewed here (see Table 1):

Road safety data for London is collected by the police in accordance with Department for Transport STATS20 national guidance, and reported in STATS19 format. More information can be found at:
https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/road-accidents-and-safety-statistics-guidance
We publish detailed STATS19 road safety data back to 2005 on the London Collision Map which is available here:
https://tfl.gov.uk/corporate/safety-and-security/road-safety/london-collision?intcmp=33888
You can filter the map to show different types of vehicles involved in collisions and the location and year you are interested in.
STATS19 data does not identify the specific ‘cause’ of collisions. The vehicle type shows that these vehicles were involved in a collision. It does not indicate that they were at fault.
If this is not the information you are looking for, or if you are unable to access it for some reason, please do not hesitate to contact me.
If you are not satisfied with this response please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.
Yours sincerely
