Hot Spot Analysis

Lanes of traffic

Under Action Item A3: Annual Crash Analysis, the Vision Zero Action Plan states that the Vision Zero will perform hot spot reviews of all reported crashes to identify individual intersections or locations that experience high numbers of crashes with the target to implement quick-build crash mitigation measures.

Hot spots are identified for vehicle, bicycle, and pedestrian crashes. County staff review each location and identify/add safety improvements that will reduce crashes. Click the links below to learn more about past and upcoming hot spot work:

To track safety at hot spots over time, the Vision Zero team maintains an inventory of hot spots, including crash data and applied treatments. The team will assess improvements at each hot spot during each year’s annual crash review to ensure the treatments implemented effectively reduce crashes at the hot spot.
