Olympic Highway N between Wallace-Kneeland Boulevard and C Street has three vehicle travel lanes (two through and a center left) and on-street parking and sidewalks along both sides of the street. There are marked pedestrian crossings at the intersections of the roadway with K Street, J Street, I Street, G Street, E Street, and C Street. With the exception of K Street, these crossings are located at unsignalized locations. The last five years of reported crash data included two bicycle crashes and four pedestrian crashes in this corridor, including one serious injury and one fatal crash, both involving pedestrians. Threet of the six pedestrian crashes occurring in the corridor, including both severe crashes, happened at the I Street intersection. As noted above, this location is one of several uncontrolled intersections in the corridor with fully striped pedestrian crossings on each approach and adjacent commercial or pedestrian-generating land uses including hospital access, transit stops and other uses. While the specific land uses at this intersection may have contributed to the higher number of reported pedestrian crashes, it is assumed that the physical characteristics of this intersection are a factor. With several other intersections within the corridor sharing the same physical characteristics, multiple systemic improvements have been identified for this corridor.
