Road deaths and injuries fall across Ealing

Road casualties in Ealing have fallen by almost a fifth since 2022, with 193 fewer people injured on the borough’s roads and the number of road deaths halving over the past year, according to new Transport for London (TfL) figures.

Data published by TfL shows there were 842 road casualties in Ealing during 2025, down from 1,035 in 2022 – a reduction of 18.65%. The borough also recorded a 2.3% fall compared with 2024.

Ealing recorded three road deaths in 2025, compared with six in 2024. Serious injuries also fell from 141 to 111 over the year, while total casualties dropped from 862 to 842.

Despite the overall improvement, pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists remain among the groups most frequently injured on Ealing’s roads. In 2025, there were 185 motorcyclist casualties, 172 pedestrian casualties and 154 cyclist casualties.

Bassam Mahfouz, London Assembly Member for Ealing and Hillingdon, said: “Road safety was the reason I got into politics and losing a loved one needlessly through a road traffic incident is horrifying for all involved.

“It’s welcome to see the number of people killed or seriously injured in Ealing and across London reducing. Clearly there’s more work to be done, but it’s great to see Ealing working with TfL to ensure we continue to make our streets safer.”

The figures form part of TfL’s latest annual road safety report, which found casualties across London fell by 12.7% between 2022 and 2025.

The largest reductions in Ealing since 2022 were among people travelling by car and motorcycle. Car-related casualties fell from 409 in 2022 to 284 in 2025, while motorcycle casualties dropped from 249 to 185.

Pedestrian casualties remained broadly unchanged, falling slightly from 174 in 2022 to 172 in 2025. Cyclist casualties, however, increased from 125 to 154 over the same period.

The data also showed fewer young people were involved in road collisions. Casualties among 16 to 24-year-olds fell from 194 in 2022 to 142 in 2025, while those involving people aged 25 to 59 dropped from 626 to 514.

Across London, 110 people were killed on the capital’s roads in 2025, down from 113 the previous year. TfL said the latest figures showed progress towards its Vision Zero ambition of eliminating deaths and serious injuries from London’s transport network by 2041.

Will Norman, walking and cycling commissioner, said: “While these figures show we are making progress, every death or serious injury on our streets is devastating and we know there is still more work to do to eliminate this heartbreak.

“The Mayor and I remain committed to achieving Vision Zero by 2041. We’ve set out an ambitious new plan, working with boroughs, the police and communities, to tackle road danger, reduce speeds and make streets safer for everyone walking, cycling and travelling across the capital, as we build a better and safer London for everyone.”
