Rodney and Franklin lead Auckland for Road Deaths and Serious Injuries

Franklin and Rodney local board areas are usually overrepresented in run off road and head on crashes; the severity of these crash types is closely linked with higher speed environments which is representative of the type of
road network in these local board areas. Over the past twelve months (November 2024 – October 2025), within the Franklin local board boundary, 68% of DSIs are indicated in speed zones above 50kmh, and in the Rodney local
board boundary 78% are above 50kmh. Auckland Transport’s further work into the deeper insights with qualitative data for each Local Board will be available to share early in 2026. Source
