In 2023, pedestrians killed in road accidents in the UK stood at 428 persons. Looking at the forecast from 2024 to 2028, there is a consistent downward trend. The number of fatalities is expected to decrease from 420 in 2024 to 388 by 2028. The year-on-year percentage decrease is approximately -2.14% consistently over the forecasted period.
Future trends to watch for include improvements in road safety technology, increased implementation of pedestrian-friendly infrastructure, and the possible rise in awareness campaigns. Monitoring these aspects could significantly impact the forecasted trend and possibly lead to a steeper decline in pedestrian fatalities.
