Pedestrian Safety Along South Broadway in Colorado’s Suburban Corridors
South Broadway runs through several of Colorado’s south metro communities, including Centennial, where the road carries a mix of local and through traffic across a wide commercial zone. Pedestrian crossings along this corridor can be challenging, particularly at intersections where turning vehicles and foot traffic converge. The combination of multiple lanes and varying speed limits makes awareness on both sides of the road especially important.
Colorado law gives pedestrians the right of way in marked crosswalks, and drivers are required to stop and yield before proceeding. However, crashes involving pedestrians still occur regularly at busy suburban intersections throughout the state. Evening hours, when light conditions shift and visibility decreases, tend to see a higher rate of these types of incidents compared to midday traffic periods.
