A crash analysis for the US 41 corridor was conducted using 2019-2022 crash data. In total, 1,796 crashes occurred during that time period. The most frequent crash types were rear end (676), left turn (281), and sideswipe (271). There were 19 fatal crashes, 654 injury crashes, and 1,123 property damage only crashes. Twenty-six percent of crashes occurred in nighttime lighting conditions.
The following patterns were noted in the study corridor's crash data:
A majority of pedestrian/bicycle related crashes occurred along the roadway segment between 57th Avenue W and Cortez Road W/44th Avenue E, where the corridor consists of high-speed traffic and surrounded by commercial land use.
Pedestrian fatalities were concentrated along US 41 between 51st Avenue Drive W and 58th Avenue W. Three pedestrian fatalities occurred at or near the intersection of US 41 and 51st Avenue Drive W. This could be due to a lack of lighting in this area and no marked crosswalks.
The highest frequency crash location was at Cortez Road W/44th Avenue W and US 41 intersection. These crashes were mostly due to careless driving, which could be due to high traffic volume and the transition from a six-lane divided roadway to a four-lane divided roadway.
The highest frequency crash type was rear end. Congestion and high speeds along the corridor may contribute to the high number of rear end crashes.
