Multi Agency Road Safety Operations (FOI ref: 1028/26)

Request

Please list the postcode locations of the MARSOs (multi agency road safety operations) conducted within the Birmingham local authority area since the start of 2025.

The list should simply be the first three digits of the postcode (eg B14) where the operation took place, and a count of how many operations took place in that postcode.

This will anonymise the exact location in order to protect your operational integrity, whilst providing scrutiny of where you are focussing your resources within the city.
