Pedestrian Safety Analysis Results <br />Ramsey County has the highest estimated pedestrian <br />fatality rates in the State of Minnesota.' Clusters of <br />pedestrian involved crashes reveal key corridors with <br />pedestrian safety concerns. These streets tend to <br />combine a large amount of fast moving traffic with a high <br />level of pedestrian activity and often have disastrous <br />results. <br />Pedestrian Safety Analysis Map Summary <br />The pedestrian safety analysis identifies streets with a high concentration of <br />crashes involving pedestrians. Segments with multiple crashes are highlighted with <br />increasing intensity and the result shows clear corridors where pedestrian -involved <br />collisions are a frequent occurrence. <br />Street segments in gray had no reported collisions. The locations of pedestrian <br />fatalities are identified on the map. These locations indicate a potential problem <br />area, although specific analysis of the crash details is necessary to understand the <br />circumstances surrounding the particular incident. <br />Findings and Notable Results <br />When displayed visually, clear corridors appear with concerning levels of crashes. <br />These tend to be streets with high volumes of cars and higher levels of pedestrian <br />activity, such as: <br />• Downtown Saint Paul <br />• University Avenue W <br />• Snelling Avenue <br />• Summit Avenue <br />• Minnehaha Avenue E <br />• White Bear Avenue <br />• US 61 through White Bear Lake <br />2B-18 I SYSTEM ANALYSIS <br />
