London fire incident map
A map of London that shows the number of fire related incidents in the capital is now available to view on line.
The map shows all recorded incidents that have been dealt with by firefighters.
The map shows that firefighters are called to approximately 3734 incidents in each London borough every month, Croydon had the most serious fires – and Southwark had the most call outs to people being stuck in lifts!
Susan Hall from the fire Authority’s Community Safety Committee said: “London’s firefighters have done an excellent job of making the capital safer in recent years but there are still some areas that are having too many fires. The map shows that fires happen each and every day across London – what better incentive could there be for people to make sure it doesn’t happen to them?”
