Government data has shown the accident rate for streets across the country during a five-year period from 2019 to 2023.
The accidents are broken down by the website, Crashmap.co.uk into three categories – slight, serious and fatal.
We’ve taken a look at the number of accidents which have occurred on, or very close to, roundabouts in Northampton and surrounding areas and listed them here, with the roundabout with the most accidents shown at the end of the list.
20. Summary
The roundabout with the most accidents in Northampton is the Queen Eleanor roundabout, with two serious accidents and 17 slight accidents over the period from 2019 to 2023. Work is currently underway to make improvements to the roundabout, as it has been deemed “no longer fit for purpose”. The works will include carriageway widening, new traffic signs and signals, drainage works and resurfacing. Photo: Google Maps
