SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) — The City of San Diego announced Thursday that 14 roadways and intersections throughout the county have been prioritized as “high-crash locations” and will potentially receive safety enhancements.
The 14 areas were identified after the City of San Diego’s Traffic Engineering team reviewed 2024 collision data and evaluated intersections with five or more injuries or fatal crashes. The data also looks at patterns, street segments with the most injury crashes and intersections with the most pedestrian-involved collisions.
**The following locations have been prioritized for further traffic engineering evaluation and potential safety enhancements: **
Transportation crews have already begun working on safety improvements in some of the areas, including segments of Fairmount Ave., Main St., Mission Gorge Rd., and Imperial Ave. However, some enhancements must be completed through the City’s Capital Improvement Program and require additional funding.
The safety recommendations for these 14 locations include additional signs, flashing beacons, and crosswalks to improve drivers’ visibility of pedestrians entering the intersections. The recommendations also call for upgrading traffic signal lights, replacing or adding speed limit signs, and installing pedestrian countdown timers.
Some intersections may also receive additional red curbs to comply with the new Assembly Bill 413, the “Daylighting Law,” which prohibits parking within 20 feet of a marked or unmarked crosswalk.

The City’s Transportation Department conducts a city-wide crash analysis each year as one of several tools to help determine policy decisions and safety investments. The results of each study are available on the City’s Vision Zero website.
