The highest number of road deaths in London last year happened in Barnet, Transport for London figures show. In 2010, nine people died and 1,520 injured on the borough's road network, a rise of 8% on the previous year.

A Barnet Council spokesman said:

"Barnet has several major TfL arterial roads running through the borough, which have a significant impact on accident figures. More than a quarter of all the borough's serious or fatal casualties happened on these roads."
