Street Safety: All Traffic Crashes
The Street Safety: All Traffic Crashes indicator measures the total number of traffic crash incidents each year in the Champaign-Urbana metropolitan planning area (MPA) and Champaign County. The Champaign-Urbana MPA includes the Cities of Champaign and Urbana, and the Villages of Bondville, Mahomet, Savoy, and Tolono. Street safety is an important part of community safety, especially as interest in and use of alternative means of transportation increase.
Since 1998, the total number of crash incidents in the Champaign-Urbana MPA reached its lowest point in 2011. However, the total number of crash incidents has been decreasing since 2018, reaching its second lowest point in 2020. The total number of crash incidents in Champaign County decreased by almost 1,000 from 2018 to 2020, reaching its lowest point in 2020.
The total number of crash incidents and injuries decreased in both the MPA and Champaign County from 2018 to 2020. The number of traffic crash fatalities dipped in 2019, but increased in 2020. The beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 reduced the number of crashes and injuries presumably due to fewer drivers commuting to work, but some of those crashes were more severe since the number of fatalities increased.
