Children's School Road Traffic Safety Measures Project

　Utilizing big data such as traffic accident data held by the police, we visualize danger points on a map.

You can check the location and an overview of the accident involving elementary and junior high school students in the city on Google Maps (My Map function).

Please use the following link and two-dimensional code.

• You can check the location and an overview of the accident of elementary and junior high school students throughout the city on Google Maps (My Map function).
• Click the icon on the map to display an overview of the traffic accident.
• You can also see the traffic accident location on Google Street View.
• Created based on traffic accident data (5 years from 2019 to 2023) provided by Kanagawa Prefectural Police.

• It is divided into two categories: "elementary school accidents" and "junior high school accidents".
• You can switch between display and hide for each year and category.
• The display order of "Participant type" in the outline of the traffic accident is not the order of the severity of the negligence (first party and second parties).
• The operation method of the map differs depending on your device and operating system.

　In addition to Otsu City, Shiga Prefecture (May 2019) and Hachikai City, Chiba Prefecture (June 2021), Yokohama City has also caused painful accidents that cause children to be killed, and traffic safety measures for children have become a social problem.
　Based on this situation, Yokohama City has set a new goal of "zero children's traffic accident deaths on school roads" from 2023 at the Yokohama City Traffic Safety Measures Conference.
