Dear ###

We write further to your request which was received on 11 February 2021 and which states (sic) - numbered for ease of reference:

"1. I would like to know the number of complaints that have been made by residents of Woodbourne Road and the surrounding area about the safety of the zebra-crossing on Woodbourne Road near the masonic hall. Please provide details of the complaints and the dates on which they were made. 2. I would also like to know the number of road traffic collisions that have occurred on Woodbourne Road. Please provide the date of the RTC, along with specific details of what occurred and any resulting injuries."

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance we have redacted personal data from some of the information you have requested because an exemption under section s25 (absolutely exempt personal information) of the Act applies to that information. The reasons why that exemption applies are that: • The Department is satisfied that the information amounts to personal data of which you are not the data subject|; and • The Department is satisfied that disclosure of the information would contravene one of the data protection principles as set out in Article 5 of the General Data Protection Regulation as it applies in the Isle of Man pursuant to the Data Protection (Application of GDPR) Order 2018, namely that the Department of Infrastructure can only disclose the information where it would be fair, lawful and meet one of the conditions for lawful processing in Article 6 and in this case, none of those conditions have been met. 1. Please see Appendix 1 2. Please see Appendix 2

Please quote the reference number 1667233 in any future communications.
