As shown, all crash rates are well below 1.0 crashes /MEV, and the crash data identified no <br />fatalities reported at the study intersections during the five -year period. <br />The crashes at each intersection were analyzed to identify patterns that may reflect potential <br />intersection safety deficiencies. Crashes were examined based on crash type, direction, and severity, as <br />well as weather and roadway surface conditions, lighting, time of day, day of week, and year. Any <br />identified patterns are discussed in the following paragraphs <br />Among the twelve crashes reported at 4th Avenue and Coburg Road, eleven were classified as rear -end <br />collisions. Of these, eight involved northbound vehicles stopped on 4th Avenue waiting to make a right- <br />turn onto Coburg Road. Two involved vehicles making a right -turn from 4th Avenue and rear - ending <br />stopped or slowing vehicles on Coburg Road. Future improvements at the intersection discussed later <br />in this report may improve safety at this intersection. <br />Ten crashes were reported at the intersection of 6th Avenue and High Street. Seven of these were <br />classified as turning movement collisions. Four of the seven turning movement collisions involved <br />I FZ/i Kittelson & Associates, Inc. 22 <br />
