Manitoba Public Insurance (MPI) has launched a new Manitoba Collision Dashboard, providing an easier way to access up-to-date collision data.
Available through MPI’s website, the new dashboard increases transparency around collision data by providing at-a-glance access to key road safety information, including the number of fatalities and injuries reported on Manitoba’s roadways. Users can view, filter and explore collision statistics through interactive dashboard views, offering a more accessible and timelier alternative to the previous report format.
“MPI’s commitment to making our roads safer is a core part of our mandate, and timely access to data is essential to understanding the facts about collisions and their contributing factors across the province,” says Maria Campos, Vice President & Chief Customer and Product Officer. “By making this information easier to access, we hope to raise awareness of trends as they emerge and better support our partners in reducing dangerous driving behaviours.”
The new dashboard replaces the Traffic Collision Statistics Report (TCSR), which was previously updated on an annual basis. The dashboard will be updated monthly, using data from law enforcement agencies and MPI’s claims team, ensuring more current and relevant information is available. Previous years’ TCSRs will remain available on MPI’s website.
“Providing reliable, up-to-date collision data in this new way will help build greater understanding of current road safety issues, support the media in accessing statistics and better assist MPI’s partners in developing prevention and enforcement initiatives across the province,” says Campos.
All data is analyzed before being added to the dashboard, and all personally identifiable information is removed to ensure accuracy and responsible use.
The Manitoba Collision Dashboard is available 24/7 at mpi.mb.ca.
