As a part of the Chicago Pedestrian Plan (featured in an earlier Soles and Spokes post), the Chicago Department of Transportation (CDOT) completed an analysis of pedestrian crashes within the city.  The study will inform and guide the Pedestrian Plan, help in developing new engineering treatments to improve pedestrian safety throughout the city, and in ongoing pedestrian safety education efforts.
