PennDOT’s crash report website does not show any fatalities or critical accidents at the SB Rt1 service road exit at Bellevue Ave. Why is the Cloverleaf at 213 necessary if there are no fatalities in this area? Please show this crash data so the public can see this data.

We are talking crashes holistically throughout the 2.5-mile corridor. I believe there have been 3 fatalities at least along Route 1 itself. It is not isolated where you have a fatality and you put in an interchange; the analysis does not work like that.

The reality is zero fatalities is FHWA’s goal, so we have to look at it more realistically and that means you can’t just cut pieces of the corridor out and put in an intersection. You have to look at the corridor as a whole. The safety analysis will be included in the technical files associated with the environmental assessment. So you’ll see all that backup data.
