A notorious two-mile stretch of road in Fife has been the scene of an accident almost every fortnight over the last 11 years.
The A92 between the Tullis Russell and New Inn roundabouts near Glenrothes saw 259 crashes between 2004 and 2014.
The data released in response to a freedom of information request equates to an incident every 15 days, with clusters of smashes at the Cadham and Balfarg junctions and the New Inn roundabout.
It included nine collisions where people were either seriously injured or died but does not take into account a spate of fatal accidents earlier this year.
A cyclist and elderly woman died following accidents a week apart north of the New Inn roundabout, just outside the 2.2 mile section.
A week earlier nine-year-old Logan Carrie died in an accident between the Cadham and Balfarg junctions.
Logan’s heartbroken grandfather Robert Brown, who is pressing for improvements to the road, said: “To the general public these are more than just statistics.”
Glenrothes Area Futures Group is campaigning for action on the A92 and is developing proposals for short, medium and long term safety enhancements.
The group has secured a meeting with transport minister Derek Mackay and sent the statistics to him to underline the case for investment.
Spokesman Ron Page said: “This re-emphasises all the points that have been made about this road by local community councils who are putting together an action plan.
“It re-emphasises the need for money to be spent on the A92.
“I don’t think people will be surprised by the number of accidents, people are aware of all the hazards and dangers, but the document puts this down in writing.
“Lots of people are frightened of the Cadham and Balfarg junctions and people living in the north of Glenrothes who are travelling south will drive right through the town to avoid using them. You can’t provide statistics for that but it is a fact.”
Mr Mackay has agreed to meet the group but a date is yet to be confirmed.
