I L 60/ 83 T ra ffic Sa fe ty Overall Corridor Crash Summary • 3-year analysis period from 2004 to 2006 • Study area from IL 176 to IL 60 (Town Line Road) • 12 study zones, segments/intersections (5 North) • IL 176 intersection • Segment between IL 60/83 & Hawley Street • Hawley Street intersection • Segment between Hawley Street & Midlothian Road • Midlothian Road intersection • No five percent crash locations

I L 60/ 83 T ra ffic Sa fe ty Overall Corridor Crash Statistics • 639 total crashes • No fatality crashes • 139 (22%) crashes occurred with injuries • 12 incapacitating type • 27% of crashes weather related (rain, ice, snow) • 23% of crashes occurred during nighttime hours

I L 60/ 83 T ra ffic Sa fe ty • Conclusions – Predominantly rear end, turning & angle collisions – Most crashes during daytime hours – More crashes observed at locations where the roadway does not have adequate capacity – Primary countermeasures include: • Increasing roadway and intersection capacities • Providing larger turning radii • Improving sight distance • Increasing storage lengths • Providing left and right turn lanes where warranted
